Easily one of my favorite gifs. The eyebrow raise just before the point really brings it home.

[–]Wardoghk 16 points17 points ago

Is that Carl Sagan?

[–]failspy 8 points9 points ago

Yessir, from episode 7 of the series Cosmos, I believe.

[–]Phallic 9 points10 points ago

Yeh, a kid asks an astute question and that's his immediate reaction.

You can see him just enjoying the pure fact of spreading knowledge and understanding.

[–]i_justwanna_knowww 5 points6 points ago

Does anyone have a link?

Edit: to the video. As much as I enjoy cat gifs, now is not the time.

[–]Phallic 14 points15 points ago

Here You Go

Education! BAM!

[–]i_justwanna_knowww 4 points5 points ago

Thanks! The way he talks to that child at the end is beautiful.

[–]quannum 1 point2 points ago

That's awesome, thank you. I've been wondering what episode that gif is from for awhile now.

[–]Theycallmepicha[S] 10 points11 points ago

Yes i believe so, making it ever better

[–]fool_of_a_took 4 points5 points ago

His passion and enthusiasm is really infectious. And his voice has a calming effect. I wish I'd known about him when I was a young'n.

[–]Cheezburger2012 7 points8 points ago

I just watched the Cosmos episode that this gif is from, and he's reacting to a girl asking why the Earth is round and not any other shape.

[–]memadbro 4 points5 points ago

Carl sagan is a boss

[–]TimesWasting 2 points3 points ago

For some reason all I want to do is make references to things. I try to hold back since I know peopel won't get every single one, but I swear everything reminds me of an obscure reference or a line in a tv show or movie or something. But it gets awkward if I do it and people go "huh?"

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points ago

Exactly how I felt when I called the new guy at work "The Squid" and he knew exactly what Nickelodeon show I was referring to. Instant best friends.

[–]DevDawgg 1 point2 points ago

The image URL for this image is imgur.com/ASsHi.gif

Maybe I'm immature, maybe I need to grow up. But I just feel like people need to know this.

[–]Dustin- 1 point2 points ago

When I make an internet reference with a crowd of people I don't really know, and one person looks at me knowingly? Feels good man.

[–]MySockHurts 0 points1 point ago

No, Carl Sagan. You're awesome.
