    Huh, maybe now that it's over I'll finally grok this whole "rick-rolling" thing...

    God bless you, Rick Astley.


    Now that Rick rolling has officially jumped the shark, we can let this song die a graceful death and leave the poor guy alone.

    I shit you not, I just got Rick-Rolled by my cellphone provider. Kind of.


    They're running a promotion for their new 3G mobile highspeed internet. Part of that promotion is a free ringtone for their "valued" wireless customers, which probably means us suckers who spend more than $100/mo on their cell bills.


    They gave me three choices for my ringtone, all based on Interne memes, apparently. The only one I recognized was this song.


    Now I just need to learn the dance, for every time my phone rings.

    Is it just me, or has this whole rickrolling thing kinda played itself out? I think yesterday was the time that it officially jumped the shark.

    It would have been funnier if this story had been about a Yukon hybrid and then we had been rickrolled.

    Or... some respect, anyhow.

    You have to admire Astley's willingness to embrace having become a punch line. Much respect.

    @smalleyxb122: The joke is kind of on the people that think it's funny. He walked away from a huge career & turned his back on a lot of money as he didn't like fame & didn't want to go in the direction Stock Aitken & Waterman were pushing him. Full credit to him for that.

    @smalleyxb122: Oh 100% agreed. Rick Astley just climbed like fifty points in my personal opinion rating.


    Plus, we have video proof of the world's first Real-World Rick-Rolling. I think that means that Rick Astley officially wins the Internet.

    @Deartháir wishes Mr. Barrett and Mr. Robber a happy birthday: Astley just won the "best act ever" at the MTV Europe music awards,i suspect he was embarrassed as he didn't turn up. Good luck to the fella,he always came across as a likeable guy.
