The most overused .gif -- squeeze blood out of these dead horses

In part due to the Internet encompassing so many different websites, in part due to people being lazy and not remembering what's been posted before, and in part because we all seem to love raking in rep or karma or points or whatever you want to call it by reposting everything, there are definitely a lot of images and jokes that have circled the ol' Tubes for years, even decades by now.

Often, .gifs are used as responses on forum message boards, emails, and social media sites**. Many of them are memes, many are running jokes, etc. I am just curious what, in your opinion, is the most overused gif out there? What's been reposted the most, do you think, and should maybe be retired?

Feel free to post it, link to it, or -- if you're especially annoyed with it and hoping to stop seeing it -- describe it. Bonus points if we all know what it is if you do the latter. (Also be sure to keep it within the community rules!)

** They are not alone in this, but I decided to limit the playing field a bit in order to reduce the potential for the topic to explode everywhere a little bit.
