As we already know, animated GIFs are perfect for any situation. They're hilarious little snippets of video that can capture exactly what we're feeling, or get to the essence of a funny moment or situation. That's why we searched high and low on the internet for the best GIFs that perfectly sum up your week.
If you know what Juggalos are, then you also know that they are responsible for some of the funniest fails on the Web. In case you've lived this long without being treated to one of their many fails, a Juggalo is a fan of The Insane Clown Posse, an American hip hop group that performs hardcore hip hop, or "horrorcore."
Think the '90s were 10 years ago? You're in for a big surprise. Clinton was elected 20 years ago, Kurt Cobain was found dead 18 years ago and Justin Bieber wasn't even born until 1994. Yes, that's right, you're old.
Anderson Cooper, also known as the Silver Fox, came out as gay in an email to columnist Andrew Sullivan that was published on The Daily Beast today.
His announcement took Twitter by storm and 'Anderson Cooper' is now trending on the site. The tweets are mainly lauding him, or confidently stating that they weren't surprised. Many quote Cooper, saying, "there is value in standing up and being counted."
Alec Baldwin is officially hitched, as of the ceremony that took place Saturday evening, June 30th at the Basilica of St. Patrick's Old Cathedral in New York.

Move over Overly Attached Girlfriend, Drunk Baby is our newest favorite meme. With droopy eyes and perched in front of a beer, this baby looks both adorable and, well, drunk. But with Drunk Baby all the rage, let's just say Godfather Baby is not happy. Don't worry though, funny babies aren't all we have this week. Skeptical Third World Kid is back again and we can always depend on Forever Alone. Overly Attached Girlfriend has a competitor in Overly Attached Cat and Hip Grandpa just wants to play some video games. So take a look at our best memes from this week below!
This week we had some natural disasters and, as usual, some very unusual animal photos. Take a look at the Colorado wildfire tragedy, the world ugliest dog, a very cute and talented dog and a dog that may be just a T-shirt (you have to see it to believe it).
Disney theme parks are home to magic, fun and love. So it should come as no surprise that the parks are also home to many weddings and marriage proposals. Even the park staff gives advice on the best places to propose. Whether you think Disney Park proposals are super cute, or too cliche, couples everywhere are making the promise to get hitched in the magical world of Disney.
