Answered elsewhere here but the short version is YTP = YouTube Poop, aka video meme comedy shitposts.

Huh. I'm a millennial and definitely spent a lot of time online during those years, and this is my first time hearing of this.

I hadn't heard it before, but with those dates and YT meaning YouTube generally, I took a pretty accurate guess

Me too!

Samesies. How can it be YouTube Poop if YouTube came way way way later?

Ah, of course. Not sure how I possibly could have been ignorant of that. You Tube Poop. Naturally.
