We don't know how Bill Cosby has reached such an unprecedented level of awesome. Maybe it's those terrible 90's sweaters he rocks or his ultra-casual approach to life. Few things could make us love him more. But one thing that could is sweet, sweet animated gifs. And boy, do we have some Bill Cosby gifs for you.
