Rick Roll is only effective on people using ad blockers

Given that ad block users are usually tech savvy and have been around the net a while: We already know the URL and can detect Rick Rolls before clicking on shit.

I have an ad blocker and I tend to recognise the link, but even when I do, I ~choose to click on it for the fun of it.๐Ÿ˜Œ

Yeah if I get a hunch that the link I'm clicking is a Rick roll, I'm disappointed if it's not

Sad reality indeed that to punk an online user with this classic requires for the said user to be tech savvy

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct
