I'm up late despite having a final tomorrow, and the only thing I've accomplished is noticing that this one and a half decade old forum doesn't have a gif thread.

The rules:
1)Forum Rules apply. Keep it PG.
2)Use spoiler tags so people don't run their data up.
Google "Spoiler BBcode" if you don't know how to make them.
3)Don't just post stuff from the top of reddit.

Here's three of my old favorites. You're welcome PhysicsForums.

This is browser dependent. At the moment only Opera loads the image once it's unhidden.
