This Ronaldo GIF Is Stupefying, Perfect
There is surely an explanation, but just watch this for one moment, unadulterated by context, and enjoy it. It's wonderful. The inexplicable behavior from the host and Ronaldo's 1,000-yard stare momentarily interrupted by a blink that says what the actual fuck? Amazing....

Seahawks Mascot Stutter-Steps, 49ers Fan Falls Like A Sack Of Potatoes
