This is a place to tell about your most epic rick rolls. These can be ones that you did to others or someone else did to you.

Granted, this may not technically be a rick roll, one time my brother and I burned the song to a CD. We had our mom write a note(to give the writing that feminine touch) saying "From an admirer." We put the note on the CD and we put the CD on our friend's car. Needless to say, he fell for it.

I want to burn the video to a DVD and put on his door or something and say that it is footage of him doing something that he could get in trouble for.

There was a site that collected all of the epic ones, like the basketball game where they played it, the Super Bowl where the sound didn't work at half time and then all of a sudden it was a rick roll, even the Obama speech where he was drowned out to Rick.

Not sure if I can find it still.


EDIT: FOUND IT!!!!!

That's true, I remember duckrolling on 4chan but I thought rickrolling didn't get big until 08. You're right though.

Also, stop saying epic.

I don't know why, but that video brought out some sort of rage in me. I felt myself wanting to punch her in the face. Typically videos don't get much of a rise out of me.

Memes are pretty much over once they become commonplace amongst news broadcasts. Our local news channels call everything epic now.

I agree. To be honest, I felt that rick-rolling had jumped the shark(Are we still allowed to say that?) for me after they rick rolled the macy's thanksgiving parade. For me, this thread was more of a way to reminisce of when it was still cool.

I consider myself the arbiter of "over" in my circle of friends. If I've heard of it, it's probably already overplayed as hell.

I used to rick roll people using QR codes. This was when QR codes were just becoming mainstream and people had QR readers on their phones.

The best rick rolling I've received: Somebody wrote a youtube URL on a whiteboard in one of the meeting rooms at work. Being the curious person I am, I typed in the URL, and got rick rolled.

NBC topped the art of Rick Rolling when they did it to the entire country during last year's Thanksgiving Day parade.
