Shitpost

A post of little to no sincere insightful substance. Especially a "shit"(low)-effort/quality-post with the sole purpose to confuse, provoke, entertain or otherwise evoke an unproductive reaction. Often exemplified in surreal out-of-context posts.

Shitposts can be many things including memes, spam, and bait - but rarely vice-versa.
Unlike memes, shitposts have no template.
Unlike spam, shitposts don't need repetition.
Unlike bait, shitposts aren't designed for response.

Why does this image of a possum with a gun say "triangle"?
You wouldn't get it. It's just a shitpost.

Shitpost

1. (noun) any content on the internet whose humor derives from its surreal nature and/or its lack of clear context. Differs from a meme: whereas a meme's humor comes from its repeatability, a shitpost is funny simply because it isn't a predictable repetition of an existing form. Shitposts can become memes, but memes cannot become shitposts.
2. (verb) to create such a post

A person who shitposts is known as a shitposter

1: did you see that shitpost on my tumblr this morning?
2: no, i hate shitposting

This definition may be considered a shitpost because it was written by someone who sucks at literacy. Why the hell am I writing shitposts when I shouldn't even be writing?

shitpost

Posts on the internet that are very useless. They are not relatable nor are they necessary.

EXAMPLE: Gene Simmons posting a tweet of ice cubes in cereal.

My friend just made a shitpost.
