The timing was impeccable, it was right as I was finishing reading the last box.

[–] Rhaedas@fedia.io 61 points 2 months ago

Well timed. Got to the end text, had a half second of "wait..."

[–] FollyDolly@lemmy.world 46 points 2 months ago

Omg the timing was perfect. 10/10

As we’re still doing rick rolls, I think it’s appropriate to dust off the old ‘wins the internet’ award and hand it over. Congratulations!

Wins the internet but lost The Game.

That's super 1337 of you! The narwhal bacons at midnight, indeed, my good sir!

You little shit. Brilliant

The client i use sometimes does not animate gif images. I though this was the case until read the bottom text

[–] Chronographs@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 months ago (2 children)

My client puts a play button in the middle of the image so it was pretty obvious

Same here, I still pressed it and it still got me with perfect timing

[–] gegil@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 months ago

I mean that the client puts the play icon as it recognises image as gif, but does not animate it sometimes, and shows only the first frame.

Comedic assault of the first degree

[–] vladmech@lemmy.world 16 points 2 months ago (1 children)

This is one of the best trolls I’ve ever seen; huge respect.

Jokes on you! My lemmy client doesn't work with gifs!

[–] davidgro@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Boost?

Worked when I actually tapped the image to open it, but not on the feed page.

[–] owsei@programming.dev 2 points 2 months ago

connect. I love it very much but gifs only load the correct frame when I click the image and stay with that :(

I just sew a patch on my battle vest with a qr code of the YT link, it's gonna meet people today for the first time. I'm excited to see how many I can rickroll.

I've been pranked several times with a link to this video, pretending to be something else.

[–] albbi@piefed.ca 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Wait, really? This same video? That's so weird.

[–] OpenStars@piefed.social 2 points 2 months ago

Surely you jest, why would someone play pranks on the internet!?1?!?

My trusty poem has failed me. xCq, link stays blue!

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

xCq, don't mind if I do!

You can use separate urls for the image and the thumbnail when posting.
In this post, the rickroll shows up in the thumbnail already.
