To send someone a link to 80s pop star Rick Astleys Never Gonna Give You Up video, making them believe that theyre gonna see something completely different. The meme originated in 4chans /v/ (videogame) board, when the official Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas trailer was coming out on the games website but couldnt be watched due to heavy traffic. Playing a prank on everyone who was reading, an anonymous 4chaner said that the trailer was on YouTube and posted a link to Astleys song. Since then, the Rick Roll has been made countless times, not only on 4chan but on the whole of the Internet.
