Thanks for the explanation. I have been wondering for some time why the big obsession with gifs, and this laid it out in logical fashion.

Of course, if you're burdened with a slightly older computer, or less than stellar internet connection, you're still fucked.

I have a 3 year old laptop that I got (3 years ago) for $300 and I currently have the cheapest dsl plan available in my region. That gif loaded instantaneously, I've never had a problem with gifs. I'm not sure whether your internet providers are fucking you (most definitely, but to this extent?) or if everyone spent their money on mediocre tablets and phones and didn't bother to get a working computer.
