The Dog Knows What's Up
I love this security camera gif because it unfolds like a story. Gifs aren't really presented with a title and description box, so there's always that mysterious element to it. I won't describe what happens in this gif to honor that, just watch it.
Pissed.
Dude's pissed.
Thank God For Brakes

Immediate Karma
Too bad the guy didn't know he was dealing with a real MacGuyver.

This guy saw that last gif and tried doing it himself, needless to say it didn't turn out as great.
