Alt-Text: I wonder what 2008 meme will go bizarrely mainstream in 2009 like rickrolling did in 2007-2008. I Accidentally <noun>? Yo dawg? Place your bets now!

Link: Here

That is how I roll. Sans maybe the whole Horatio Caine sunglasses thing.

by **joee** » Wed Dec 31, 2008 5:03 am UTC

Can you put the title of the comic in the thread?

Also... creepy. Also, I accidentally <noun> is an awesome meme, even if I did spend 10 mins trying to find it on google to prove I wasn't making it up, and hence insane.

by **TheGrammarBolshevik** » Wed Dec 31, 2008 5:04 am UTC

Really? What is it about you that makes everyone think of "Never Gonna Give You Up" when they see you? Or has Rick Astley finally found these forums?

P.S. I suppose that he accidentally the thread title.

But not the whole thing.

I wonder if this had something to do with today's Cracked article..

by **TheHand** » Wed Dec 31, 2008 5:05 am UTC

Happy new year all! Rickrolling, I didn't know what it was until it was too late... *sniff**

by **Pizzashark** » Wed Dec 31, 2008 5:05 am UTC

Brilliant.

by **AppleJordan** » Wed Dec 31, 2008 5:05 am UTC

yessssss.

by **Master Gunner** » Wed Dec 31, 2008 5:06 am UTC

Awesome

I so want to do that now.

And I never got the whole "I accidentally ___" thing

by **Faranya** » Wed Dec 31, 2008 5:06 am UTC

Good thing that I decided to check and see if I had been beaten before I posted...I had the topic all done up nicely too...oh well...

It is, in fact, another year.

I'm pretty sure the Horatio Caine thing in the last panel is the next meme.

YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

My first "Randall get out of my head" in a while, to the title text, that is.

Also, this was an excellent comic. Although if I saw Rick Astley show up at a party, I'd beg him to sing Never Gonna Give You Up for other reasons.

Also, I accidentally a rickroll.

Double au contraire! I meant causing a disruption simply by doing nothing at parties (since, as my peers will tell you, I tend to be disruptive in normal activities) (and no, I'm not Rick Astley...I am simply Ze). Further, I was basically running a template and forgot to add the title, accidentally Xenogearsing the whole thing.

(no, couldn't think of a good better noun for rushing to completion...)

Is there a single comic thread where no one does the whole "OMGZ Randall, get out of my head" thing? Seriously, it's old. And annoying. Nice comic, but I was hoping for a 2008 wrap-up graph-comic.

But, the previous comic was a graph comic. With all due respect, are you dense? ;P

(not going for the old Batman meme there)

I'm happy to get a real joke instead.

To be fair, most of them have at least one person saying it's stupid to say "Randall, get out of my head".

Apart from everything else everyone in this thread has already said, the only thing I can think is that I want to be famous just to do that.

by **Invisible_Insane** » Wed Dec 31, 2008 5:27 am UTC

Someone with musical talent should create a song to express how awesome the fusion of these two memes was.

Title: We Wont Get Roll'd Again

by **Forrest** » Wed Dec 31, 2008 5:28 am UTC

I place my bet on Yo Dawg, although I hope I'm wrong. That is my favorite meme of all time due to its potential for lulz, and if it went mainstream it would take away from the magic.

by **GodShapedBullet** » Wed Dec 31, 2008 5:30 am UTC

Sometimes when everyone talks "this meme" and "that meme" it really makes me wonder what Richard Dawkins thinks of all of this.

by **MrRubix** » Wed Dec 31, 2008 5:31 am UTC

I was half-expecting a YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!

You accidentally completion. (That's what she^* says you always do.)

Clearly, what this thread needs is at least one person saying that it's stupid to say that it's stupid to say "Randall, get out of my head"!

And now there is one.

by **Binks** » Wed Dec 31, 2008 5:36 am UTC

Oh wow!

by **mariusk** » Wed Dec 31, 2008 5:41 am UTC

Randall, get ~~out of~~ into my ~~head~~ bed!

EOD.

Well, they are techincally memes, right?

I like this comic, by the way.

by **lazarus89** » Wed Dec 31, 2008 6:05 am UTC

I'm putting my money on "Yo dawg".

by **sje46** » Wed Dec 31, 2008 6:10 am UTC

Anyone see this "bad cats" nonsense? Total ripoff of lolcats.

My vote is on lolcats, if it isn't already considered mainstream.

I think you accidentally a meme.

by **SocialSceneRepairman** » Wed Dec 31, 2008 6:21 am UTC

Well, we now know what the mainstream meme of 2009 will be.

this....this.....

I just rickrolled EVERYONE I'm connected to via internet.

and yes, comix wins.

by **fisticuffs** » Wed Dec 31, 2008 6:45 am UTC

you know, i really should have seen the ending coming...

by **pyroman** » Wed Dec 31, 2008 6:47 am UTC

I'll admit i actually don't mind getting rick rolled from time to time. I have actually begun to enjoy the song. Besides the bar tender in the video is just awesome.

by **6453893** » Wed Dec 31, 2008 6:52 am UTC

This really works. I now hear THAT song every time I see Rick Astley's face or hear his name. It's a constant threat, like the game I just lost.

You're right. I should have said "Mainstream meme of MMIX." For alliteration. 'msorry.
