8. Wow.

That is really funny! And kind of mind-blowing for an internet phenomenon to take place in real life. Then get posted on the internet again. Sign of the times I guess.

I think I know what "Rick Rolling" is. I watched the video, but could not seen anything particularly odd about it. What am I missing here?

15. Any link purporting to be EXACTLY what you are looking for,

which then points to a video of that song, is a "Rick-roll".

In this case, it was the artist in the Rick-roll videos himself, performing a living Rick-roll in the fracking Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.

It was sweet, sweet irony.

:rofl:
