What is a demotivational poster?

A demotivational poster is a parody of traditional motivational posters. While motivational posters use inspiring images and uplifting phrases to encourage people, demotivational posters use humor, irony, or sarcasm to create the opposite effect. These posters typically feature an image surrounded by a thick black border with a title in capital letters and a subtitle below that adds a humorous or cynical twist. The format became popular on the internet as a form of satire and comedic expression.
