Tell me.

What is a "meme"? What manner of thing is a "shitpost"?

[...oh god they are for real and this is his life now.]

No, it's more of... make fun of or to provoke a negative response from someone for their own amusement.

You know. Being a jerk.

There's no eating involved, despite bringing up trolls. Don't ask me where the phrase comes from, I don't actually know.

Sometimes. And sometimes it's meaner than others. Sometimes it's done because... well, they might not know better, or there's a miscommunication.

I haven't run into too many times where it was meant with actual malicious intent here. But that's not to say it doesn't ever happen, either.

The nuance is kinda hard to figure out without experience and knowing the people involved.
