Gifs, used to illustrate a point in online debate and/or funnies, that are nothing more than short clips of a pithy quote from something or other. The point of the gif is to visually emphasise what is being verbally expressed. In other words, if I want to say that I am annoyed, I find a gif of something showing annoyance with body language or animal antics - I don't find a gif of Robert Downey Jr. saying "I am annoyed" and put that as a caption underneath.
GOD.
(I've been following a lot of tumblrs lately.)
