  Given that ad block users are usually tech savvy and have been around the net a while: We already know the URL and can detect Rick Rolls before clicking on shit.

    I have an ad blocker and I tend to recognise the link, but even when I do, I ~choose to click on it for the fun of it.😌

        A friend of mine helped me set up a Star Trek automation where the lights turn on and a Star Trek LCARS video plays on my TV.

        Went to demo it only tk discover he’d changed the link to a rickroll. I love that trolling bastard
