It’s rickroll madness!

April 1, 2008 in: random|Jump To Comments

I freely admit I’ve been rickrolled more than a couple times. It’s like a terrifying 80’s rain wreck that you just can’t take your eyes off. I actually thought the joke had petered out somewhat, but it is back with a vengeance today. I’ve seen Mr. Astley pop up in Twitter links, via a mass YouTube prank, on Valleywag, on a couple MMORPG forums I frequent – it’s like a “Never Gonna Give You Up” tidal wave of disturbingly epic proportions.

Even poor Beaker the Muppet got co-opted. That’s wrong. Just wrong.
