Effects of rickrolling

Interesting article on boingboing about rickrolling and its problematic dependence on the semiotics of cisgendered discourse.

That's a really fascinating article.

 

I clicked it and was not disappointed. 10/10

 

I am disgusted.

 

Ugh

 

I don't know what to say.

 

I don't know what I expected

 

Well, I don't know what other people expected, either, but I expected a bit more from someone willing to tackle such a tough subject in the first place. Bit of a let-down, really.

 

+1 for Robin Hood Men in Tights gif.

 

Have you guys read this rebuttal? Some interesting things to think about.

 

I only have one thing against RickRolling - I can't handle surprise. Not even a little bit. But I know that so I am careful about what I click.

 

Spoiler: -Cartman voice-

I hate you guys. You're all assholes. Especially @rigorist I hate him the most.

 

what a let down
