I have a handy bookmark of a Cloudup stream with a bunch of GIFs ready to go. In Simplenote, a pinned note contains descriptions and URLs of those GIFs for quick searching.
With several of my colleagues as inspirations1, I’m fairly quick to have a relevant GIF for a Slack channel or P2 thread at work.
Priorities. Don’t hate! 😎
In all seriousness, GIFs are fun, and the visual element might be helpful for subconsciously improving recall detail of certain facts.
Consider the NBC TV series, Chuck. Flashing images, then Chuck knows Kung Fu.
Perhaps the connection of a GIF with a lengthy conversation can be recalled in greater detail when thinking about the GIF.
I said “perhaps”.

You’re such an awesome dude, Bryan. This man knows how to organize his GIFs!
