The Shitpost Dilemma
When your shitpost is liked more than the work you actually put effort into.
An artist wakes up and paints, putting an enormous amount of effort and time into it. When it is complete, the artist puts this out to the public (usually via social media) and receives minimal feedback about it. Possibly 5 likes. The artist then creates a shitpost in under five minutes and posts it, receiving grand critical reception and more than 100,000 likes.

Artist: "Man, I spent two years on that piece and nobody cares. Then I draw Garfield getting head from George Bush and that's all I'm known for. "
