Rickrolling is an Internet meme involving the music video "Never Gonna Give You Up" by Rick Astley. The meme is a bait and switch; a person provides a hyperlink which is seemingly relevant to the topic at hand, but actually leads to Astley's video. It is a prank of that was biggest in 2008-2009. If you do open such a link you have been Rickrolled.

Randall uses it several times, even going so long as to even Rickrolling Astley himself in 351: Trolling or having Astley visit a party in 524: Party, to not Rickroll Danish.

Finally he has used it twice to make people feel old by referring back to it, including the celebration the 10 year anniversary of the peak of the meme in 1981: Rickrolling Anniversary.

Below is a list of comics that refer to Rickrolling.
