You+Are+The+Cancer

Peter, Peter, Peter.

I suspect it was you who was editing the Wikipage, and adding Rick Astley's garbage to the front page. If not, well, then this is directed against the Ninja amongst us.

Rule #1: We do not talk about ebaumsworld outside of ebaumsworld.

Rickroll stopped being funny after it became mainstream. It's like the song that you hear constantly on the radio; no matter how good it seems, or how hilarious it is, //it will never be funny ever again.//

The original purpose of Rickroll was to piss people off by sending them to a video that wasn't the video you claimed it was. It was brilliantly, stupidly funny, in its own strange way. Like Nazi Germany, it was an inside joke. Forced Godwin's Law.

In essence, it is an unorginal, unfunny joke. You are the person (again, could be Pete, could be someone else...Jeremy) who quotes Monte Python fourteen times in a paragraph and writes it off as "wit". You are the person who says "Great Success!" when you get a B on your test, or spout off some line from "Clerks" because somehow you are unable to understand that **everyone in the class/state/country/world has seen it before.** It's not funny for precisely that reason.

There are, I admit, parts of humor which will always be classic. They will never die, no matter how many people know of them. But simply quoting something, or posting a link? Not funny. You are the Cancer.



You see? This is how it all started. Maybe four of you in the class will understand exactly what this is. If you don't, don't ask for an explanation. It's up to you to find out the true purpose of a duckroll.

Understand, the duckroll in and of itself is not funny. But it's a selective joke. The four people who see this will understand immediatly what I'm talking about when I say that you are the cancer. If you don't know duckroll, don't Rickroll.

I need filler, because otherwise I'll feel my internet ego diminsh like a wilting cabbage on a hot day, i.e. like I do every day after North Penn shovels me through the turd filled hallways and classrooms which stink of the mental vomit of half-wits and apathetic, trendy teenagers. I digress though...I rant about that next to fulfill other assignments.



Have fun. There is so many thing out there that are better than Rick Astley.
