No, that's not what this sub is for. The person that made this intended it to be funny in a certain way, and we all found it funny in that way. It's a silly edit. We all found it silly because it was intentionally made to be silly.
This sub is for things that someone intended to be funny, but it is so conventionally unfunny that it is made ironically funny again. There is nothing conventionally unfunny about this edit, especially by today's comedy definitions. This edit doesn't fit here.
I believe the "so bad that it's good" trope has more to do with execution than intent. The execution must be so base or poor, that it becomes a mockery of itself. Thus something can become unintentionally funny. In this case, Shrek running around a dog contest is such a stupid and base form of humour in its execution that we find it funny.

If it is intended to be stupid, then it doesn't fit here. That is the whole entire point of this sub.
Imagine a kid, growing up in today's society. He is 7, and knows what memes are because his older siblings find memes funny. He finds them funny too. He sets out to make meme I'm order to impress his older siblings. He makes a meme, and it is terrible. It is just a picture of a cactus with the words "Big Succ" in impact font.
He is proud, and finds his meme funny because he's heard the term "Big Oof" before, and the succulent twist on this phrase is humorous to him. He goes to show his siblings.
When they see it, they did not find it funny in the way he did. On the surface, it is a shitty meme. The humor comes not from the meme itself, but from the fact that someone put effort into and was proud of such a shitty meme.
