    It had to happen sooner or later...notice how everyone likes to joke around with Rick roll on the internet, somebody was going to be original enough to say....ahhh let's get the real Rick and see what's happens?

    I think Rick Rolling just jumped the shark.

    RIP KingCheetah!


    This is another reason I don't watch the parade anymore. First, I can't stand the commentary most of the time. Second, I don't really care to sit and wait around for the Dora float to come on screen for 10 seconds and then they move on to the next one. And now I can add a third point - I don't want to get Rickrolld.

    I saw this.
    Imagine my surprise when I woke up and saw Astley handling his biz in the parade. I thought I was back in '88 again.

    Rick Astley is an internet phenomenon. That's inherently funny.

    I'm wondering what Rick Astley has been doing since the 80's.

    Is it me or is Clay Aiken looking/acting even gayer since he came out?


    Not that there's anything wrong with that...

    Also, I just wanted to say...this year's parade was the biggest collection of the worst lip-syncing I've ever seen. I don't think one person even seemed like they were trying to sing or match the music. Hootie was the only person I would say did an efficient job.

    For me the bad part of it all is I actually liked the song and the mocking of it just reminded me of that ...Then seeing people's reaction of "GHEYEST SH-T EVER" upset me more than made me go along with it :eek:
