Re: Why do people rick roll?

Hmm... Link fail?

EDIT: I can't watch the video... "This video contains content from Sony Music Entertainment. It is not available in your country."

EDIT 2: When you fix the link, do this:

Paddle2See wrote:

But please, when you post Youtube links, put this in front of the URL address:

http://quietube.com/v.php/

it presents the video without the comments, which are often inappropriate for Scratch.

Re: Why do people rick roll?

It's funny as long as you don't overdo it. And I don't see how it insults Rick Astley, I mean, it is an awful video.

I don't think you actually know the meaning of the word sadist, so you shouldn't be throwing it around like that. Your definition's wrong

Right, calling him a sadist is extremely exaggerated. It will always be funny among
Internet users, no matter how many kids complain about it (not trying to start a flame war, but seriously you guys are overreacting).

Re: Why do people rick roll?

Rick Astley actually said that he thought the prank was funny, and that he enjoyed the attention it gave him. Personally, I think it's a pretty good song.  tongue

Re: Why do people rick roll?

Rick likes it, like PW said.

He found it hilarious, and said that his only concern was that "his daughter doesn't get embarrassed".
