An ironic art form of expressive yet apathetic funposting practiced only on s4s, the philosophical meme factory board on 4 CHAN.
I spent hours a few hours today drawing wew lad naked, now I'm going to spend the next 3 days shitposting about it.
shitposting is posting random low quality stuff on the internet
for example: stop shitposting tf2 memes bro
(in its original sense) Posting with little effort or care as to what will happen after you submit "post." Shitposting also occurs in subcategories:
- Actual shitposting: when you become so enraged that you rape your keyboard with your unholy fingers. Often, the resulting post will be deemed as unfunny, awful, racist, or in general of poor taste.
- Funny shitposting: when you think of a terrible idea to post on twitter dot com or some other website, and of which is often bizarre, full of eggcorns and other grammatical errors and general so bad it's good. Take @dril for example.
(how normalshitters use the word) any post which is just a mildly silly, #relatable or overused joke. It doesn't matter what the joke is, though usually it's involved with unfunny meme from 2013, like thicc or dank memes. Usually, if the post is on Twitter, it's actually a draft saved from two weeks ago. Also, "shitposting account" are usually only half of these, with the other half dedicated to retweets from literally who's rant on the patriarchy, "satisfying" stuff or in general boring shit one would expect Sally from middle school would post on her Tumblr blog.
(originally) Decent Person: Hey, look at this thing
Shitposter: Fuck you only a retard like Tommy Wiseau could think of downy shit like that go neck YOURSELF REEEEEEEEEEEE
Decent Person: wtf
(how Twitter uses it) "Shitposter": uwu
*Gets 1 like*
"Shitposter": Haha, look mom everyone loves my shitposting! It's so amazing!
When you post on Internet forums and don't give a shit what you're saying. In general, being a bad person.

The act of posting images usually on a image board of things that no one wants to see, or make any kind of sense. People who usually do this end up making themselves looking like a complete idiot.
That guy shitposting images of his shitty "dank" memes deserves to die violently in a Nuclear Genocide.
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.
