Instagram Overcompensation Post

An excessively personal, revealing Instagram post about oneself in response to the premise that people only share their "best moments" on Instagram. While Instagram Overcompensation Posts (IOP) have become a serious trend, distinctly personal information about millions of people is being posted publicly on the world's 6th leading social network (1 billion active users).

Did you see her Instagram Overcompensation Post (IOP) this morning? She shared several paragraphs of detailed information about her family's personal problems.

That guy's IOP the other day was so gnarly, he posted like 5 pictures of himself at the hospital getting hemorrhoid surgery because he wanted to be "real" with Instagram.

This phrase indicates a “woke” instagram account with zero basis in reality. Their post likely lack any factual or logical basis and therefore can’t stand up to any outside criticism or commentary. The phrase is used to reassure viewers that their echo chamber is safe from *trigger warning* outside penetration.

My fish Josh identifies as a guppy. Doctors assigned him shark at birth, but he has had numerous experimental surgeries to affirm his identity as a guppy. We’ve had issues with other fishes swimming into Josh’s stomach and sometimes people get micro aggressive about it - therefore Josh has decided up protect fishself and Comments on this post have been limited.

Post-Shit

A category that references what is left after a shitpost. Mening a text that is influenced by and has all the trappings of a shitpost: camp, kitsch, blown out aesthetics and clearly delirious plot or premises, but that takes out all of the levity associated with it, instead, we are meant to take it seriously and even dourly, instead of laughing along with it. Authorial intent bears some relevance to the proper application of this category, meaning that it is necessary for the author of the work to have imbued the text with these qualities, rather than their presence being unintentional (e.g. The Room)

Some precursors of the genre might be, as works bearing very little verisimilitude and over the top aesthetically, which present themselves as earnest works:
- Collapse, by nick land
- Unknown death 2002, by yung lean

"Have you heard Brat, by Charli XCX? I saw the cover art and thought it was a shitpost, but then all of the songs, even though they bear a lot of resemblance with the aesthetics of rave culture shitpost memes, are really earsnest, come even deep and moving."
"yeah man, thats because it's not a shit post, it's post-shit"
