YOU GOT RICKROLLED!!!

Have you all heard about this? Have any of you been rickrolled?

Rickrolling is a prank and Internet meme involving the music video for the 1987 Rick Astley song "Never Gonna Give You Up". The meme is a bait and switch: a person provides a Web link they claim is relevant to the topic at hand, but the link actually takes the user to the Astley video. The URL can be masked or obfuscated in some manner so that the user cannot determine the true source of the link without clicking (and thus satisfying their curiosity). When a person clicks on the link given and is led to the web page he/she is said to have been "Rickrolled". By extension, it can also mean playing the song loudly in public in order to be disruptive.

By May 2007, the practice had spread beyond 4chan and become an Internet phenomenon, eventually amassing some coverage in the mainstream media. An April 2008 poll by SurveyUSA estimated that at least 18 million American adults have been rickrolled. SO you may have been rickrolled before...

Even Michelle Obama has gotten Rickrolled: On June 7, 2008, a number of political blogs, including Wonkette, Andrew Sullivan, and Balloon Juice, posted an article claiming to show Michelle Obama going on a rant full of racist references to 'Whitey', but the video was actually a Rick Roll.

There is even an entire site dedicated to getting rickrolled.

I tried to embed the video, but all of the embedding has been disabled by request. too bad, so sad.
