    Stupid Have you ever been "Rick Rolled?"

    Post by RedBedroom Fri May 25, 2012 2:32 am

    I did once when I was new to the Internet in my home. Totally fell for it hook, line and sinker.

    I JUST got Rick Rolled...trying to listen to the tracks off John Mayer's new album. I hit a link on Youtube while looking at the Chamber and didn't realize it until the end of the Rick Astley song! Damn.

    I used to adore Rick Astley. I had a pic of him in my room standing next to a yellow convertible. YUM. I have always adored him.

    Rickrolling is an Internet meme[1][2] involving the music video for the 1987 Rick Astley song "Never Gonna Give You Up". The meme is a bait and switch; a person provides a hyperlink seemingly relevant to the topic at hand, but actually leads to Astley's video. The link can be masked or obfuscated in some manner so that the user cannot determine the true destination of the link without clicking. Persons led to the music video are said to have been rickrolled. Rickrolling has extended beyond web links to playing the video or song disruptively in other situations, including public places,[2] like a surprise appearance of Astley himself in the 2008 Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York.[1] The meme has helped to revive Astley's career.[3]

    I would imagine sometimes it is linked to a virus. But mine was not. It was just a youtube Mayer link.

    Nah. It's almost always a youtube vid. It's just a trick or joke. Not especially funny when you're seriously looking for something. But no harm done.

    And to answer, yes the rotten bastards lol

    Yes and it can be annoying but the length of the videos can be an indicator if it's a Rick rolled prank.
