I've started to amuse myself when people post sappy quotes.

For me, it was like going through the whole traumatic experience all over again..💩

This got me to thinking. So I'm in my mid 30s and my parents are 70ish. I was a cut up my whole life. My parents always scolded me when I went low brow, and poop jokes and the such were the lowest of the low. But I've always secretly thought they were funny, and have heard/made/told many good ones that cracked people up.
Long story short, I emailed this to my dad with the subject line "be 100% honest, do you find this funny." Time to see if he doesn't actually find this stuff funny or if he was just trying to "raise me right"

Why do people post things like these? To make themselves look smarter or what?
The post or the comment? Because the comment was fucking hilarious. Post not so much
The post
I suspect it varies from narcissism to anxieties. As soon as I see those types of posts I unfollow that person.
I find a lot of people try really hard to be poetic
Roses are red
Volts are blue
Waitin' for muh pizza
Damn, I gotta poo
Obviously if the poster is a teen and not suffering from trauma, this is a cry for attention
They're hoping for a response. Likes, etc. Positive support as well; it's not completely cynical.
