When your girl friend is jealous that you are messaaing another girl on facebook, myspace, etc. So, because your girlfriend is jealous, you also send her a message to make up for it.
I sent my girlfriend a pity post so she wouldn't be mad at me.

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.

After a guy buys a hot girl a drink, he then buys her ugly friend a drink too out of pity.

"I know man, but I feel bad for her friend so I got her a pity drink, you know, out of pity."
To deflect, knowingly and unknowingly, from the problems one might have with a commercial product/a corporation's unethical behavior by turning it into an overly emotional issue centered around how a high-level executive directly responsible for said problems must have felt.
Originally used on Blizzard Entertainment's Overwatch 2 forums to describe the perspective that the game's director, who misled an entire community by lying about a game feature that was heavily advertised when they knew prior to the game's release it was cancelled, must have felt too ashamed to act otherwise.
A: I feel so bad for the game director, they must have felt too bad to tell us the truth...
B: That's pity shilling- feeling too bad to do the right thing means nothing when not doing it means you are misleading people.
