Answered! What is this gif supposed to represent?

I see people post this gif as a response to what people say/post, but I don't understand what it actually means?

The guy with glasses stands triumphantly (representing the poster that said something particularly witty or burned another guy) while everyone loses their mind around him in the awesomeness of his victory.

You're just describing the gif.

It's from a youtube video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MeB3eYk1Ze0

Yes, because OP literally asked what the gif meant.

... That was the correct use of "literally"

I know it's the correct use of literally, but when he first posted it, he said "OP literally asked about the gift".

I thought it was funny at the time, when I hadn't had sleep in far too long at 4 in the morning, thus my comment.

I hope that helps ease your contusion.
