I was watching Wheel of Fortune with my GF a couple of months ago and a "movie" puzzle came up. Thanks to hyphens I was able to solve the puzzle (Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse) before any letters were revealed. My GF was pretty impressed.
Using Boost I don't know. But I use the markdown syntax, so I put an exclamation mark, then square brackets (any helpful alternative text goes there, in case the image won't load or for screen readers like for blind people), then the image URL goes into curved parentheses. It's super annoying to type it all out, but I love the gifs so...
And let's see if I can display the above in a code block...
With Boost, all you need to do is tap on the photo icon on the bottom line. Then you can add the GIF into the URL box. On top line just add any word you want.
Minor flex, I'm actually pretty good at solving these without any letters. It used to drive my parents crazy. Not much use unless you are able to get on that show.

That’s not terrorism. That song is a bop.
It’s the national anthem of the Internet.

I didn't get it right off.
"National anthem of the internet" was the clue I needed.

I've never seen, "The Internet is for porn" called our anthem, but OK.

Was Welcome to the Internet not our anthem?

Joke's on you. I was expecting this and clicked anyway because I wanted to hear the song.

It really takes an inexcusably small amount of effort to find a better copy
-- Edit --
I fucked up and did the unthinkable. I let you down.
Here's a correct version. (Also found in a matter of seconds, so the point still stands.)

Your version is broken at the end though and ruins it.

Isn't that what guesses are marked as? It would be a T so it makes sense.

Well great, now I want to see an angry, long-haired, metal-head headbanging and spinning their hair in a circle to this song.

Good antidote: play Superfreak in your head.
Drawback: now you have Superfreak playing in your head.
