Blocking animations?

Animations and flashing things (including animated user icons and mood icons) basically break my brain and they keep showing up on my reading list, much to my dismay. I'm wonder if it's possible to add an option to the user settings to block all animations on the site (in my innocence about web development, I have no idea how difficult this would be)? I know this is an accessibility need for other people as well.

Just as a tangent to the discussion, not a point--I do recommend Portable Firefox for situations where you can't install software but do need some specialized browsing experiences.
