The Poop Dealer meme belongs to the niche of surreal memes and shitposting that gained massive traction on platforms like Reddit, Instagram, and iFunny around 2018. It typically depicts a person in a shadowy or unsettling environment acting as a black-market merchant for a ridiculous commodity, a concept so absurd it subverts traditional humor. The comedy stems from the low-resolution aesthetic, the bizarre nature of the transaction, and the inherent immaturity of the subject matter. It is frequently used to parody drug dealer tropes or simply to create a sense of confusing, ironic discomfort among viewers within irony-poisoned internet circles.
