About
"This Poster is a Skeleton" is an image macro featuring a downward-pointing arrow and variations of the phrasal template ""this poster is an X / do not trust what he says."" On 4chan and other imageboard communities, variations of the image marco have been used as forum weapons to mock other posters in discussion threads.
Origin

On September 6th, 2015, Redditor notcreative77 posted a version of the image macro featuring the character Randy Bobandy from the television show Trailer Park Boys to /r/trailerparkboys,[5] where it received more than 650 votes (91% upvoted) and 50 comments in four months (shown below, right).
