A bunch of tronians are currently knocking at our gates, and the steem powers that be have decided we should should help welcome them all the while hoping there's no trojan horse in our near future.

And why not, tron's tags seem to be poppin and I need a few extra cents for my wisdom.

And so it is with that that, Dear tronians and tronianettes, I give you The Shitpost, an unappreciated and almost forgotten art.

The Shitpost:

The shitpost gets a bad name in these mean streets of interdweebs. Some say it's just to dumb down audiences, others say it's just spam but I say, bla bla bla! a shitpost is just a tool, and tools can't be spammy nor good content, it all comes down to the person posting them.

Let me explain;

• If a person posts good content but does it often, he's a spammer.
  

• Reverserly, if a person shitposts but doesn't do it often he's a good content creator.(I currently fall in this category.)
  

• However, if a person shitposts and does it often then he's a proficient spammer.(I want to go back in that category.)
  

• And if a person posts good content but rarely does, he's just wasting his talent and my time, unless he shitposts in between. Then, he's a great content creator.
  

So you see, the shitpost is an excellent tool to have in one's arsenal. For not only do they make you an all rounded content creator, but they also turn you into a universal voice of reason as shitposts can transcend personalities, beliefs, and ethics.

Memers, scientists, rich or poor, and even politicians, all can find solace in a shitpost if it's well done.

And lucky you, you in great hands, a blessing and a curse really, coz just a few months ago there were greater hands around but, they were also weak hands so you stuck with me. Hence;

My CV:

As you can see from my autovoters, and my loyal self votes, my shitposts do hit the spot. I don't like bragging but, they the creme de la creme of la steem, with a little bit of cringe sprinkled on top, that creme de la cringe.

Subject Matter:

Doesn't matter.

How To - Step by Step:

• Shitload of Coffee.
  

• Remind people that steemit is not steem.
  

• Shitload of coffee.
  

• Let the subject matter choose you.
  

• Make at least 5 paragraphs between your intro and conclusion. Make the paragraphs as short as possible, no one will discover your scheme I promise. Even if they do, tell them I told you that @shadowspub told me that it makes articles more readable, and she's a curator so she must know what she's talking about. Make this paragraph extra long to evoke irony.
  

• Find a way to mumbo jambo nothingness into a coherent sentence, even if senseless. If you can't, convince yourself you did and just publish the damn post.
  

• Include a phrase like this in your post; Ask not what your steem can do for you but what you can do for your steem, to catch the attention of the big fishes. Spoiler alert, it won't.
  

• Make the post as brief as possible, except when the shitpost gods smile at you, then you hold nothing back.
  

• Few coffee.
  

• Buy another toilet paper roll.
  

• Inconsistency is key; Hit them with something real or deep every once in a while to make them think you actually got something to say. We both know you don't but, they don't.
  

Homework:

Research the rest of those steps and put them in the comment section below. I'll go over them later and make the ones I love most my own. No, I won't credit you.

You're welcome!
