the other day on imgur was a post about gifs and their origins

i always thought this was from a comedy(movie) but i didnt know it was from an interview of the third president of uganda Idi Amin Dada. big on genocide and other atrocities

made me sad tbh
Some more context.

The reason he's laughing is because the interviewer asked him something along the lines of "You said before that hitler didn't kill enough jews, blah etc etc"

Then he laughs like that.

Believe it or not I only watched The Matrix for the first time a few months ago and finally saw notlikethis.gif
 
What about the one from man of steel, the tornado one with someone else's face on pa Kent. That face is perfect, almost as funny as the Charlton Heston laugh/cry.
 
I was googling images of Encino Man to post about on some GAF thread and discovered it was actually the origin of one of my favourite gifs

Recently I re-watched the T-Rex attack of Jurassic Park and was mind blown. I though the following gif was from some stupid butt show...

I watched Community earlier this year and learned where such things as "Man squints at tiny piece of paper" and "Pizza delivery to flaming room" came from. My reaction was like

I'm pretty sure this is Jurrassic Park scene edited together with some butt video instead of the T-Rex.
It worked on me, for some reason I thought those were like the equivalent of elephant hooves on dinosaurs banging on the window, and not some joke spliced in. It's been decades since I saw Jurassic Park :p

There was a multi-page thread on GAF full of people shocked that the Robert Redford Jeremiah Johnson nodding GIF isn't Zach Galifianakis.

That's the whole joke of the gif. The butts look like dinosaur hooves. I don't know the orig on the butts, so I don't know if the hoof thing is on purpose or a funny coincidence.

Where's the one of the brunette white chick wearing a glittery dress shaking her hands left to right?

I think i've seen that one posted here at neogaf at least a good 5000 or so times.

The amount of The Wire gifs spoiled a bunch of characters... on the other hand it kinda made me familiar with the whole cast, especially Mcnulty

Amazing show btw



EDIT: That's Robert Redford?! I though it was a less famous actor, and I love both the Gif and the actor
 
Been watching Friends for the first time with my GF. As soon as I saw the episode description that mentions Ross moving, I anticipated this moment.

I find this quite hilarious.:D

By the way, I watched the other source of this gif. It's a very naughty source.
