Selena’s Music Video Is Better Than Her Song and Her Singing

We don’t really care too much for Selena’s “try hard” in her latest music video, but if I HAD to pick out a few choice GIFs, well, I definitely know what they would be:

Soap eating. Why use a toothbrush and toothpaste when you can get straight to the point?

Chic regurgitation.

Eyelash curler to tongue

But are you ready for my favorite…? LIPSTICK EATING. Look at our girl pushing the envelope!

NFC Champs (Again!) Here We Come!

Just in case you missed Saturday’s game, here are the only GIFs worth watching that will tell you all you need to know about our game against the Panthers:

This… and then this incredible 90-yard run. Kam Bam, you had quite the game on Saturday and now I’m even more excited for us to go against the Packers!

Pinterest Allows You to Pin Animated GIFs

I cannot lie and say that I haven’t been waiting for this moment for some time now. It has been almost a dream for me to create a whole pin board dedicated to my favorite GIFs and now this has been made possible. As of right now, you can only pin GIFs on Pinterest via the internet, but the website promises that it will be on mobile soon enough. What has also made this a little bit more interesting is that you can share a GIF pin to another user on Pinterest. Basically you can do this on Facebook too, but I’m curious to see if this will pick up among their audiences. Below is my favorite GIF for the time being…because like we’re going to the Super Bowl next weekend y’all!

GIFs Are Coming To Facebook

For quite some time, I have been thinking that leaving a picture for a comment on Facebook wasn’t sufficient enough for the emotions that I was trying to express. Sometimes you need to insert a GIF, but for the longest time, Facebook wouldn’t accept that. Well my favorite GIF site Giphy has finally found a way around it.

When wanting to post a GIF on Facebook, all you have to do is copy and paste the URL into the comment just like you would with any image and it will simply appear. Can’t wait to see these popping up on Facebook.

Carly Rae Jepsen Can Pitch

Just kidding. No she can’t. Honestly? Who am I to judge; friends of mine know that my athletic ability is at an all time low- but this GIF is still pretty funny. 

Canadian singer Carly Rae Jepsen made the first pitch at the Tampa Bay Rays’ game against the Houston Astros.

How Things Work:

It’s been awhile since we’ve had an educational post here on Yow Yow! I came across this GIF today of how a key really works  and it pretty much blew my mind. If only all lessons could be taught in GIFs, right?

Facebook Allows Users To Respond To Comments With Photos

It’s a small feature, but it’s a feature that is actually quite important to me. For a couple of months now,  I have tried (and attempted) to respond to comments with GIFs and haven’t been able to. Little did I know that it wasn’t even a function on Facebook. Today, Facebook finally is rolling out the new feature so that I never have to run into this problem again! When you respond to a comment, there will be a little camera icon to your right that will allow you to attach the image you want to respond with.

Look at you Facebook. Doin’ you.
