I just looked up what it means to "Rick roll" someone

Zaden · 08-21-2010, 10:48 PM

Rick rollers should all not be allowed within 1000 feet of computers with internet access.

If I met someone who said they like to Rick roll people, I'd bash his brain in with their keyboard.

I have had many hours of my life destroyed by Rick rollers.

They should be thrown in a prison where the other inmates are rewarded and praised if they can successfully bruise the Rick roller with a computer mouse.

They deserve eternal pain.

People should have specially trained dogs to rip their fingernails out by the roots.

Rick rollers are evil sons/daughters of whores and should all be annihilated with 1,000,000-degree fires of hell.

It's just sending people to a video of Rick Astley.

It's bothersome at best, and you can usually see it ahead of time if you're saavy enough.

It's most certainly not sadistic though, just cliche.

Wait, this isn't the Venting forum?

MeowMan · 08-21-2010, 11:34 PM

I like to rick roll people.

Zaden · 08-22-2010, 12:10 AM

@Tazy: There were a lot of videos that I wanted to see that turned out to be a stupid music video(not necessarily because the music video is stupid, but because it's not what they said it was going to be!), usually the same stupid song by Rick Astley. Eventually I started thinking, "What is this FREAKING SONG!?!? WHY DOES IT KEEP SHOWING UP IN UNRELATED VIDOES?!?!"

I singled it out because it's a meme, one of the reasons it's in the meme forum rather than the venting forum.

But I get really pissed when I search for a video, see an appropriate title, and then click on it only to find it's something completely unrelated, and I know they used the title of something awesome just so they could get more views. Ha! As if I'm going to watch more than two seconds of your crap video with its BS title!

Of course I wouldn't be mad if I clicked on a video called "[song title] by Rick Astley" because then I'd be getting what I wanted.

I hate videos with bullstuff titles! They're so aggravating! I've gotten like four in a row once!

On an entirely unrelated note, I loved the "Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends" float in the '08 Macy's Thanksgiving Parade.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Vgfian · 08-22-2010, 12:44 AM

What to look for.

CLICK ME IF YOU DARE... Seriously though, click here.

Just in case you've been scarred in some way by Rick Rolls and didn't click the link, here is the image in the link.

Spoiler Below

I some how fell for this a while back because I didn't check the uploader and found it quite hilarious. So I've been saving this pic for such an occasion for a while.

I still think the song is OK, kinda. Esspecially the 8-Bit remix.

Somehow, I feel if I click on your link I'm going to see Mr. Astley...

You will not see that music video or hear that track, I promise.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Vgfian · 08-22-2010, 01:42 PM

Which music video and track are you referring to when you say "that"?

(I haven't checked the link either.)

Also, I remember there was a time when Vince McMahon was rick toll'd on WWE live while giving away a prize via phone. Found it on Youtube. XD

That will be the only time where I will actually have wanted to see/hear that song! There's something wrong with the verbs in that sentence, but I can't figure out how to fix it...

BUT YOU LIED!!!!!

**Valigarmander** · 08-22-2010, 04:26 PM

This isn't a rickroll, I swear.

Luigiman7 · 08-22-2010, 07:09 PM

I did not lie. That was not the music video, & it was not that track (it was a live performance).

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Not live. Lip-synched. I believe.

What he sounds like now. (start at 2:25) Enjoy~ By the way, you've had advance warning. :)

And rickrolling's AWESOME. <3

CuccoLady · 08-23-2010, 12:52 AM

I got rickrolled 3 times last year on April Fool's Day. Twice was by the same person.

My curiosity just kills me because YOU NEVER KNOW IF IT'S A RICKROLL SO YOU MUST CLICK LINK TO CONFIRM and even if it is I like the song so who cares x{D

***Cosmonautical*** · 08-23-2010, 01:35 AM

This isn't a Rick Roll at all. You probably think it is, but it isn't.

Click to view video.
