Someone who actively acts to steal the sympathy that is meant for someone else, generally by witnessing someone behave sympathetically to another and intersecting their own ( often exaggerated ) story of hardship so the sympathizer and the original beneficiary have to give the poacher all the attention and condolence. A behavior closely related to the chronic"one-upper" personality
I was telling the boss about my kid having a cold and that pity-poacher bill started lying about being born with dypheria and gout, so much for getting to clock out early, bill already got to.

A half-hearted attempt at sexting someone back a picture of your somewhat erect penis. Can result from a lack of arousal, lack of enthusiasm for the recipient, or lack of girth and/or length in your own dick.
Person 1: *sends dick pic*
Person 2: *not really horny, sends semi erect dick pic*
Person 1: "Send me one that's hard."
Person2: "You're an asshole, that was a pity semi and that's all you're worth."

I derivative of pity sex. When a action sports company sponsors and individual in exchange for promoting their goods not on the basis of being top talent but granting them status because they make up for lack of talent in other areas such as stoke, balls or age.
I can't believe that fat middle aged long boarder got sponsored by Breaking Boards just because he has more courage to ride huge scary monster hills; Or perhaps it's because he is older than my parents; Or they just feel sorry for him. Anyway, I am the best skater, he sucks, and I am going to hate on him because of it... pft! What a pity sponsorship!

An act of creating a post on social media to gain pity, may also be to gain likes or upvotes as well.
Greg created a pity post on reddit about not knowing how to gain karma. People feel bad for Greg not knowing how and gave him upvotes through pity.

A smile given by someone who feels pity for someone. A condescending type of smile, looking down on someone with pity.

A virtual "reward" you can give someone whom annoyingly complains about situations in their life that either lack merit or they are doing so to derive unnecessary sympathy.
Person who is complaining: "I'm way pissed off man...my Dad is buying me a new BMW for my birthday when I specifically asked for a Ferrari!"
Annoyed Friend: "Wow...that really sucks. How 'bout I warm up the oven and bake you some f*cking Pity Cookies then!"
