Actually cannot believe this. After 13 years, Sony/BMG have decided to take down Rick Astley's "Never gunna give you up" due to a dispute with Youtube over ad royalties.
It's completely blocked globally. Actual end of an era.
@Marquise_de_carabats @vegetablegremlin You must be a RIOT at parties. :|
@LumiKlovstad @vegetablegremlin because to be fun at parties, one must trust everyone else there to not be fucking with one
@Marquise_de_carabats @LumiKlovstad @vegetablegremlin "not to be fucking with one" is hilarious phrasing 🤣 Spot on!
@Marquise_de_carabats @LumiKlovstad id rather hang out with her than anyone who rolls out this boilerplate
@LumiKlovstad @Marquise_de_carabats @vegetablegremlin also fuck parties
@Marquise_de_carabats @vegetablegremlin
TBF, that's some excellent work it was quite a dilemma 🤣
@vegetablegremlin @Marquise_de_carabats had a similar thought hahaha
@Marquise_de_carabats @vegetablegremlin I clicked 🤦🏻♀️🤪
@naomid @vegetablegremlin I ALMOST did too
@naomid @Marquise_de_carabats @vegetablegremlin I knew and yet I clicked anyway, like a moth to the flame
@vegetablegremlin nice try Satan.
@vegetablegremlin I see what you did there.
@vegetablegremlin That was a good one
@vegetablegremlin I will _not_ click on the link.
@vegetablegremlin@jorts.horse I... I...
I FELL FOR IT GOSH DARN IT
@vegetablegremlin jokes on you I actually like that song 👀
@eonity [ nodding ] no doubt you have the album already and dont need to worry about it being pulled down
@eonity @vegetablegremlin
I downloaded this video years ago.
At first it was just funny getting Rick Rolled but over the years the song actually grew on me.
@vegetablegremlin I would be banned from my instance if I were to say what I felt right now after clicking the link.
🐾
@vegetablegremlin I fell for it. Well played.
@owashii @vegetablegremlin I did too. This was *very* well done.
dammit. XD
@vegetablegremlin No way I almost fell for it.
Good thing I have autoplay off
@vegetablegremlin That's how the Rick rolls. :(
@vegetablegremlin I don't need to click it, cause I can already hear it in my head 😎
Clearly, it's never gonna give you up.
@bodhidave I'm mentally rickrolling myself at this point. @vegetablegremlin
@vegetablegremlin the greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing people to rickroll themselves
@vegetablegremlin I always click the rickroll.
@vegetablegremlin Not falling for it!
@vegetablegremlin ALMOST clicked, almost 
@vegetablegremlin
This was an amazing attempt
@vegetablegremlin of course I'm gonna click on it, I love this song. It's not a rick roll if I want to listen to it
@vegetablegremlin I think it's back up it still works.
@vegetablegremlin not today, Santa
@vegetablegremlin Fuck copyright
@vegetablegremlin holy shit this is sad, whatever that means 😭 because I'm lost
Not gonna lie, the song is a banger
plays FFXIV
@drwho @vegetablegremlin Not alone. I still think he had a fantastic voice.
@drwho @gothnbass @vegetablegremlin not clicking that link, nice try though
@drwho @vegetablegremlin Not in the least. ❤️❤️❤️
@vegetablegremlin But the era of pathetic music industry management continues. They long lost me as a customer anyway (rootkit on Audio CDs was the boiling point) apart from small independent labels & directly sold content by band/musicians. At least in Germany you sadly still pay them money automatically when buying anything that could potentially be used to copy music.
@vegetablegremlin Well played.
@vegetablegremlin gods fucking damn it, after all these years...
i clicked the fucking link....
@vegetablegremlin still not clicking
