Now today is April Fool’s Day. It seems like this would be a good time for all of us to
explore one of the most popular pranks in the history of the internet. It’s an early
version of today’s internet memes, and something that I still get hit with at least once
every few weeks. It usually comes in the form of a innocuous link, something you don’t
realize is a prank until you click the link.
Good pranks stick with you long after the prank is pulled, and this one is in this guy’s
opinion, one of the best. Once you’ve been hit with it, and the song associated with it
needles it’s way into your brain, consider your day shot. The song is pure 80′s gold,
not in a classic sense, but in a so-bad-it-must-be-good way. If you haven’t figured it
all out already, I’m talking about the ever popular Rick-Roll.
