Normal Gifs Are Great, But Broken Gifs Are The Stuff Of Nightmares
As if the popularity of gifs didn’t already make you feel like you were behind the times, there’s now a whole new genre of web-based art that takes things to a creepy new level.
Like guitarists distort sound with amps and pedals, broken gif enthusiasts distort pixels. Pieces of frames are strategically moved to create an effect that makes it look like the subject’s sense of reality is shattering around them. What I’m telling you is that broken gifs are like regular gifs on LSD.

16. He almost looks like he’s sad about his face melting.
17. Wait for it…
18. Beauty and the beast.
19. I feel like you wouldn’t have much control over this thing.
20. Me after looking at all of these.
