Update: We have the best news for you. That dog meme Hillary loves? The pic was taken at the Ben & Jerry's headquarters, in the Cherry Garcia conference room. "We have dogs at our office, they pretty much run the place," the ice cream company tweeted back in 2013, when the original photo was posted.

Today, Hillary Clinton spoke at the annual Women in the World conference in NYC, and it gave us so much life. In an interview with New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof, HRC was on fire tonight, dropping gems like: "'Why don't we cover maternity leave?' Oh I don't know? Maybe you were dropped by immaculate conception?" and comparing the Trump administration's decisions to SNL sketches.
But by far our favorite — and, clearly, the internet's favorite — quote from her tonight concerns a certain perfectly timed viral tweet that encapsulates our frustration with government meeting after meeting (after meeting) in which men make decisions about women's lives. Exclusively men. Like in this picture:

Proving just how much we'd love to get a drink with her and pick her brain about everything under the sun, the people's president revealed her favorite meme. And, lo and behold, it's one of our favorites, too, because it mocks the above white-men-only situation in a hilarious way. With dogs discussing feline health. The really priceless part is that she called it a GIF, which it isn't. MOM.
We'll let the internet take it away.
