i've wanted to start this thread for a while, so here we go.

post one of your favorite, often-used gifs from a tv show or movie, and explain where it comes from and what is happening to cause the gif. for example:

Wee Bay GIFs | Tenor

this gif is of wee-bey from the wire. s1e12 - "cleaning up". he has this realization/reaction when stringer tells him that the girl that got shot in the back-alley drug deal setup was actually an undercover cop (kima). before then he thought it was just "one of orlando's ho's".

go.

The 90’s movie “Dazed and Confused.”  Set in 1975.  HS Freshman refuses to smoke drugs and an addict senior thinks he’s a square.

Tombstone, Johnny Ringo’s comments about the death of an Earp.  appropriate for when somebody says or does something that crosses a line but is still funny.  Usually death-related.

Survivor TV show.  Not sure of the context because I don’t watch such shows, but I think @Deej and I came to the conclusion that it was the perfect gif for Shaggy and now Surly, with the women representing polite society and the guy representing Shaggy/Surly when something awful happens that we find funny but we know society doesn’t.

What's the origin of this one?  One of my faves

Heathers. A fairly fitting response to some of the questions asked on this site.

These three were split off from their original "tribe"/allies.  The girls are reacting to the fact that one of their friends/allies had been voted off in the previous tribal council.  The dude, is obviously happy about this outcome.  I'm pretty sure that's the context.

One of the Amazing Races.  Pretty self-explanatory.

I've texted this to my son at least 30 times in the last two years during our high school and/or Cowboy games.  I actually don't recall the context.  Halp!

From Curb when Larry is in The Producers and forgets his lines. 

Headed to the commercial break after UTSA scores to make it 7-21.

Apparently a scene from the Tipper Gore era movie "Youth Suicide Fantasy."

Like why wasn't he one of the Multiverse Spidey's that showed up in Spider-Man: No Way Home alongside Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield?

Prompted by her Dad rhetorically asking "I don't know why I smoke these things."

This was on TV

Probably from some kid's show where the mom and dad are trying to get a night out on the town without the kids in tow and they finally pull it off.

 

i like using celebration gifs from shows.

One of my all-time faves.  From the tv show Castle. His daughter just told him she wasn't going to do something he didn't want her to do and was replacing it with something worse. Don't remember the specifics, but that's the gist.

this is from the parks and rec episode where andy found a positive pregnancy test and the person who is pregnant has just walked into the room.

ron swanson dresses like tiger woods (and is in a great mood) the day after he has sex.

the aziz one is from a kanye music video i think. 

^^^ Well now, how in the hell did I miss that?  I'll have to tighten up my Kanye game.

Anyone know the origin of this one?

That's from the movie Troy. Brian Cox is playing Agamemnon, leader of the Greeks. I think he's laughing at the Trojan champion, but it's been awhile since I've seen the movie.

 

The thread would probably be easier if everyone just posted the knowyourmeme entry: https://knowyourmeme.com/

That’s from Troy. 

I’ve never seen an episode of Parks and Rec in my life but I love this gif.

I've used this a few times.  I find it to be an appropriate reaction to lots of things ranging from the totally heinous to the slightly off-putting.

Larry David Reaction GIF

That's from the end of a brilliant Curb Your Enthusiasm episode called Palestinian Chicken from Season 8, Ep 3. There's a Persian chicken place that Larry and Jeff absolutely love, but the problem is that it's very pro-Palestine and anti-Israel. He gets a some credit for fighting with Super Dave in the parking lot over wearing his yamaka to it and wins over the crowd of anti-semites in the store. 

Larry ends up sleeping with a beautiful Persian lady he met there, despite his heritage. However, a conflict develops between a Jewish Deli next door and the chicken restaurant. The protesters are lined up with his jewish friends on one side pleading with him to join them, and his persian slam piece offering a 3way with her sister on the other. So the episode ends with him weighing the options and ultimately cuts to credits before he decides, which leaves the viewer wondering what option he chose. I think most everyone I know would have gone with the chicken place. Truly a remarkable 30 minutes of comedy excellence, and Larry's personal favorite episode of Curb.
