For those of us that can spot the URL for "Never Gonna Give You Up" at a glance, we are getting rickrolled without ever clicking the link.

  Same for those who hear the music in their heads whenever they see the title.

      It clearly says Rick. Why do you attempt such low-effort humor?

  Learning to read at all is just opening yourself up to all sorts of new avenues of attack.

  I… Walked right into that one.

  It was a post talking about “Never Gonna Give You Up.” It mentions Rick rolling on click.

  Clicked the damn link anyway.

  I love the internet

  Don’t have to recognize the whole URL. XcQ, link stays blue.

  Never understood the joke anyway, though.

  Maybe the next generation of Rickrolling should involve providing a link to a real video but disguising it to look like the Rickroll link?

    Reverse rickrolling. Only works if rickrolling is still a thing, otherwise people will just click the link ;)

    My ex once got rickrolled in a public bus. I said the song is cool and kept it playing on speakerphone. The whole bus genuinely enjoyed it (people singing along), nobody complained :)
