4chan moot testimony: “Rickroll is a joke?”

Posted in Humour, Internet by Elliott Back on August 10th, 2010.

From the Smoking Gun comes a piece of testimony from Christopher Poole, 4chan’s founder moot, full of lovely gems such as:

Q. And the term “rickroll” you said it tries to make people go to a site where they think it is going to be one thing, but it is a video of Rick Astley, is that right?
A. Yes.
Q. He was some kind of singer?
A. Yes.
Q. It’s a joke?
A. Yes.
