I don't think I've ever had a more appropriate post for this icon.

I do not condone the illegal actions Anonymous has been taking against the Church of Scientology, but I fully support the rickrolling:

What ideology could stand up to that catchy 80's beat? It's very Discordian. I like that.

The whole strategy is just so freakin' brilliant: announce why you're doing it, make it clear on the day as well, then confuse the everlovin' crap out of them, and have some geeky, dorky fun. Because really, how do you yell/argue/fight back when the crowd is demanding mudkips, claiming "THIS! IS! SPARTAAAAA!" and that the cake is a lie? You can't, is how. :D

(You know whose opinion I'd like to know about all this? Rick Astley. Because really, how does it feel when your most famous song has become a bizarre protest song?)

Maybe he'll just embrace the silliness, like William Shatner (http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&ct=res&cd=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DiyUNDbo2KMU&ei=1SWxR6eUHJ-mpwS3qoGMAw&usg=AFQjCNE2hwG94se8jQF8tbRYfa9mCJ1oZg&sig2=12TFa29--YfmZXh9jGVXIQ). God knows he won't get any other mileage out of his washed-up-ness.

(I just wanted an excuse to link to his World of Warcraft commercial. I love it beyond words.)

Aw, Shatner. I admit, I have kind of a soft spot for him ever since I read about what he did about the Kirk/Uhura kiss, and then I saw this show called (roughly) How Star Trek Changed The World in which he basically spent like two hours making fun of himself. And then, the WoW commercial. "My name is William Shatner, and I'm a shaman." WIN!

I would kinda really love it if Astley showed up to a Co$ raid to rickroll them live. :D
