I can’t see the reason for it but apparently, Rickroll song is now an anti-Scientologist song. Maybe because of the people’s disgust whenever they get rickrolled that the protesters associate the song with the church.
Don’t know what’s I’m talking about? Well obviously you haven’t been rickrolled. Let me bring you up to speed here.
Say you are reading your favourite forum when you see this great post with a link that says “Check this video out!! It’s Datuk Chua Soi Lek’s infamous hotel video on youtube!“. So being the porn-freak that you are, you click on it and what do you see?
It’s a video of Rick Astley swaying and “rolling” his hands to the tune of his famous late 80s hit “Never Gonna Give You Up”. Not only you didn’t get to see the said video, but you’ve just been Rickrolled!
You can read some history on it here. Just like any other meme, it has taken other various forms too. Another reality rick roll is this one, where a hired singer is sent and sang live to his victim.
I think because of this meme now I will think twice before clicking on any links. Watch video of Church of Scientology gets Rickrolled below.
You missed Rick Astley? Click here to read what he says about this phenomenon (don’t worry, it’s not a rickroll).
