Biography
The Shitsmith is just a regular guy with a very shitty job. Literally. It's unclear whether "The Shitsmith" is his actual name, as it's used occasionally with an integral article, but often without. His body is peach-colored and egg-shaped, and he has small blue legs and feet, a white head, and an enormous underbite. He always wears a pair of large orange gloves stained with whatsit, and he is usually seen carrying a large shovel. The Shitsmith has taken a vow of silence and never officially speaks, nor does he seem to ever display any emotions or facial expressions. He does occasionally hold up signs to communicate, however. He is sometimes seen poking his shovel as a half-gesture, similar to how his Old-Timey incarnation, The Demon, uses his pitchfork.
While it is unclear exactly what his job is, The Shitsmith has been employed by the King of Town, apparently to shovel whatsit for a living. While he never seems to transfer whatsit between his constantly-soiled gloves and anything he touches, the inherently filthy nature of his job tends to keep him out of most social circles; for example, he is apparently banned for life from Strong Bad's Swimming Pool, as seen in keep cool. Despite this, he seems to be held in deep respect by the other characters. For example, Strong Bad has refrained from hurting The Shitsmith, figuring "the guy shovels crap for a living so his tolerance for pain's gotta be through the roof." He even made two cakes for The Shitsmith (though he threw one of them at Strong Sad). The Poopsmith also seems to be a good friend of Pom Pom.
During disconnected he is depicted as being the King of Town's law enforcement agent, defending the King and his "municipality" from the rock-throwing disobedience of Strong Body. He also has some musical talents: he plays the cymbals for the K.O.T.H.S. Junior Varsity Marching Band, which made its first appearance in Fall Float Parade; and is the lead vocalist for All the King's Men! despite never speaking (he simply gestures with the microphone).

Speech
File:Shitsmith spokemaybe.png
Couldn't be him. Naw.
The Shitsmith has taken a vow of silence and never officially speaks. However, there have been a few minor exceptions:
- In The King of Town DVD Storyboards, The Shitsmith was supposed to say "Nope". This line was not included in the actual toon.
- In Pumpkin Carve-nival, The Shitsmith (dressed as a Sleestak) hisses at Strong Bad (who was disguised as Homestar Runner) and The Cheat.
- In Strong Bad's different town, The Shitsmith would talk. To demonstrate this change, the fantasy Poopsmith says "Hello!"
- In highschool, Strong Bad's "doodle memory" includes a scene with "The Diapersmith" blowing a raspberry at baby Strong Sad.
- In senior prom, a deep voice (similar to The Shitsmith's imaginary voice in different town) says "Oh yeah!"; though we never find out who actually says this, it is strongly implied that it was The Shitsmith (who was seen holding a microphone earlier in the email). When everyone looks at him in shock, he just shrugs it off.
