Rick Astley actually deleted the video from his YouTube channel because he got sick of the meme.
Holy shit! He actually did! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ
You can't... Fool... Me... I won't c...lick it!
Wow, they're right... End of era, folks, he finally gave us up.
He also broke the internet. That link is everywhere.
I admire your dedication to the bit but I'm not fucking clicking that
I'm clicking this because I don't believe you and want to listen to the song.
Honestly, it's kinda a banger.
It's grown on me every Rick Roll, and I gotta dance to it
XcQ, link stays blue
At least I used to say that 10 years ago. Now it doesn’t rhyme because when I see XcQ, link turns purple
Oh fuck, it's real, when it happen??
so sad :(
What level meme are we at when all it takes to get Rick rolled is a tiny mostly translucent silhouette in a corner that everybody can recognize?
We're at Darmok and Jalad
At tanagra?

Five, sire
You got me. Well done.
Hey now, it could be worse, you could have lost the game (again).
two can play at this game, and I am experienced: you are now manually breathing. You are aware of where your tongue sits in your mouth, brushing against your teeth. You now notice you can always see your nose. You're also aware of the way your clothes feel against your skin, including your shirt tag.

There's something nostalgic and comforting about the fact I'm still getting Rickrolled in 2026 and I actually genuinely love the song too so I'm not even mad because it's actually a certified banger!
I was at a loss, but I'm glad I didn't give it up. That would've let me down.
the pity fool
Huh. And here I expected to lose the game. Glad that wasn't the case.
*camera pans to YOU*
Oh ffs, I had months on that thing 😠
Yes, but fuck JK.
I stopped myself initially from looking but then looked anyway because my self-control is bullshit.

I said in my head “I’m not going to do it”, but I couldn’t not know. I did it. I regret everything, and you have made me acutely aware of my weaknesses.
