It was 9 or 10 years ago I think, back when I still used iFunny regularly. One day there was a featured gif from the anime A Certain Scientific Railgun, but I didn't know what it was at the time.
It was a clip from the first episode, a scene where the main character flicks a coin at an oncoming car, except the coin shoots out at hypersonic speed and blows up the road in front of the car. It was captioned something like "Me when slow cars won't move out if the way". A few days later, I went back to the comments on the post to find out what the clip was from. I watched the whole first season on YouTube on my 3DS that week and it's been my favorite anime ever since.
A friend had been trying to convince me for months to watch Attack On Titan at the time too, but I just wasn't interested in anime until that meme.
