''{{w|The Ring (2002 film)|The Ring}}'' is a {{w|horror movie}} released in 2002 based off of the Japanese movie ''{{w|Ring (film)|Ringu}}''. In it, there is a video tape that causes everyone who watches it to die after seven days. However, the viewer can prevent their death by making a copy of the tape and giving it to someone else. | ''{{w|The Ring (2002 film)|The Ring}}'' is a {{w|horror movie}} released in 2002 based off of the Japanese movie ''{{w|Ring (film)|Ringu}}''.

| β | A young [[Cueball]] watches the tape and prevents his own death by "copying" the tape and uploading it to a video-sharing website, presumably {{w|YouTube}}. Cueball not only got one person to watch it, the requirement for escaping death, but 363,104 people, all of whom are most likely going to die in seven days. | + | A young [[Cueball]] watches the tape and prevents his own death by "copying" the tape and uploading it to a video-sharing website, presumably {{w|YouTube}}.

<span class="plainlinks">[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ Rickrolling]</span> is an Internet meme where someone is lured into clicking on a video link of {{w|Rick Astley}} singing "{{w|Never Gonna Give You Up}}." When someone is rickrolled, they usually get very upset. Cueball states in the comic that he uploaded the tape to get revenge on everyone who rickrolled him, though it was obvious that he would likely kill many more people than those who rickrolled him (or those who've rickrolled anyone else). | <span class="plainlinks">[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ Rickrolling]</span> is an Internet meme where someone is lured into clicking on a video link of {{w|Rick Astley}} singing "{{w|Never Gonna Give You Up}}."
