Why We Need To Dig A Hole, and Lay To Rest “Rick Roll”
Now don’t get me wrong, I love internet Meme’s, but after a while it is time to put them away for a little while, and for me I think that time is when my grandma knows about them.
Richard Paul Astley was big back in the day, then nothing, then 2007 hit and he was turned into an internet Meme where over 25 million people would be the subject of being “Rick Roll’d”. Being “Rick Roll’d” is where you would tell someone “Hey, check out this great link to X site” then when they would go there and expect to see perhaps Pokemon pictures, they would then be greeted by Rick Astley’s famous song “Never Gonna Give You Up”, thus they were “Rick Roll’d”.
Now I think that Rick should still be a classic internet Meme, but as for right now should go the way of the dodo bird, maybe resurface in about 8 months then it will be a big hit again, until then maybe we should focus on picking a new type of “Rick Roll”
In closing, I think that we should all honor the “Rick Roll” and take a look at some cute “LOL Cats“
