Does lemmy have a retired gifs community?

I don't think this would fit, despite it's good fit to the context. Retired gifs had to be something like:

Headline: Man teabags alien after defeating it in single combat

And then somone posting a gif of the master Chief teabaging a dead elite

Turning "Every Step You Take" by The Police into a love song should have been peoples' first clue.
