Alas, I stumbled upon that one, and while I'd have preferred it without the caption (it's not the wording I would've chosen), the deciding factor ultimately was that the image was already rehosted, and that's a pretty big positive.
Hmm, solid methodology based on the concept you have in mind, and I don't think your process for selecting a gif within those specifications can be refined much. The crux of my disagreement, however, is based on my belief that Abe's post warranted not a jizzgifian reply but a dancegifian reply or a confusedfacian reply. Cite the famous example of poster "allinontheturn" responding to a post of durious merit with the confused baby originating from 8_high's opus magnum "stepping up the 2p2 smiley game." Now his approach was by all means correct, but the sole flaw stemmed from its lack of any sort of animation, hence his reply fell flat. One, learning from the mistakes of the past, can adopt the gist of his reply and add the parts that were missing, namely the animation, and, in the process, sculpt a reply well-suited to the particular post Abe008 made.
