Murmeli Walan Posted November 27, 2008 Posted November 27, 2008 Just when I think this Rickrolling fad is over, something happens that just makes it more and more awesome. It gets played in a stadium, it gets sung in a subway station, it gets chanted at a Scientology protest, and now it's sung at the Thanksgiving Parade by the actual artist. Amazing. Quote
Geoffrey Taucer Posted November 27, 2008 Posted November 27, 2008 Wow. This could not possibly be any more epic. THe only downside is there's no reason to rickroll anybody ever again. This cannot be topped. Quote
Bleck Posted November 27, 2008 Posted November 27, 2008 If I was ever Rick Rolled by Rick Astley himself, I think my heart would explode. All while feeling intense euphoria. Like in Fist of the North Star. Quote
The Coop Posted November 27, 2008 Posted November 27, 2008 Wow. This could not possibly be any more epic.THe only downside is there's no reason to rickroll anybody ever again. This cannot be topped. Yes it can, by one instance... rick rolling the upcoming presidential inauguration, with Rick Astley. Quote
The Pezman Posted November 27, 2008 Posted November 27, 2008 Dammit... I could have gone to New York to seen this. Quote
JCvgluvr Posted November 27, 2008 Posted November 27, 2008 If anyone ever deserved to win the internet, it's Rick. Freaking epic! Quote
Broken Posted November 28, 2008 Posted November 28, 2008 That was great. I just wish I'd seen it live. This was probably the first time I've missed the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade in the past ten years. Oh, well. It's still awesome. Quote
Ralphis Posted November 28, 2008 Posted November 28, 2008 Am I the only one that thinks that the whole hilarity of the Rick Roll was lost once transitioning into main stream? I don't mean to be a scrooge so to speak, but I feel like the humor was lost a long time ago. Other than that, Happy Thanksgiving! Quote
kitty Posted November 28, 2008 Posted November 28, 2008 I never thought it was hilarious as much as a way to say "you got owned." Quote
I-n-j-i-n Posted November 28, 2008 Posted November 28, 2008 Sorry, but that really is too epic for description. Especially when Rick Astley came out himself. I honestly can't care for those who don't get the meme. Shea Stadium and now that. The entire eastern United States has been Rick Rolled to death. Quote
EdgeCrusher Posted November 28, 2008 Posted November 28, 2008 This 4chan bullshit needs to die already. Quote

It gave it a one-time revival by being the most epic rickroll the world has ever seen. But now it has reached it's climax, and we can let it go. This is how the life cycle of a meme SHOULD work, though! It starts obscure, then gets bigger and bigger until something as epic as this happens. Then we can let it die. Quote

It starts obscure, then gets bigger and bigger until something as epic as this happens. Then we can let it die. Kinda like the obscure event where Oprah says "OVER 9000". Although I think hasn't truly died just yet... Quote
SynthesizedStampede Posted November 29, 2008 Posted November 29, 2008 That is so friggin' awesome on so many levels. Delivers. Quote
