What's the longest time you've stared at a GIF

TechSage

How long have you just stared at a GIF not realizing it has been a couple of minutes. I saw a gif of a bunch of cats running around a corner saying "abandon thread!"  and I watched that for 10 min straight, not even exaggerating 

There are 10 types of people in this world, those who understand binary, and those who don't.

My computer froze trying to load that, resulting in me pressing the reset button that did a cold shutdown and corrupted files, I then had to go into safe mode and then do a bunch of other shit. 

 

In other words, I hate you. :P

Tha its the longest that took to load.

To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure, but risk must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.

You must have a crappy computer, then. My netbook sucked it up like a man and took it.

Nothing to see here - move along.
