I feel bad about my last post. I played with the hearts of Ender's Game fans to demonstrate the rickroll, but thought I'd stop so both of my readers won't get upset.
Similar to viral videos online, this is a kind of viral online practical joke - to offer a link to something highly anticipated leading to the awesome 80's music video by Rick Astley below. This link (http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20070516182851AArhHWu) explains the rickroll gaming roots.
I love this video. Mary, my 2 year old, started dancing to it the other day, and I'm trying to teach her to move her arms like Mr. Astley.

"Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie
and hurt you."
I find this the lyrics to this song and this prank to be very ironic and hurtful.
But very funny.
Excellent. Now I can say I have been "rickrolled," and I'll have to look for opportunities to pull off a rickroll myself.
I love this music video... It looks like one of those karaoke style music videos you could do in the early nineties. It's like he got together with the three other people in the video and said... hey, lets make a music video, I know this great place at the mall. Amazing how people were entertained by that back in the day! I know I was. Should I have admitted that?!
I was hurt, but you have not lost my readership.
