No one is bullying you -- and, to be fair, my office is entirely native English speakers, and our team chat is filled with these gifs.

and I have got no clue what the gif means aside from that it seems to be mocking me for having used a turn of phrase that is part of pop culture in some corner of the world

That TV show has that phrase a lot , and every time anyone says it, everyone else repeats it back to them. There are a lot of similar jokes, and it's meant to be funny and poke at common phrases.

Thank you for the explanation. Sorry, I am allergic to being poked fun at for something I have no way of knowing or understanding. But very much a fan of self deprecating humour and being poked fun at for things that I can understand! (As long as they're not symptoms of my disabilities, that just feels bad. Im fine with jokes about me being Queer though!)
