He said that he thought embracing the meme would cause it to die. It didn't.
Also, he claims he made more money off this one performance than he has through YouTube plays of his song.

I have a friend that hadn’t heard of a Rick-roll until a few months ago. I get her about once a week now. Thank you for this gem.

Wait, when did Rick-Rolling become a big meme? I I was 11 at the time of this and it was around when I got my first iPod Touch so I guess I kind of started to get exposed to memes, but I didn't know the word and what they truly were until I moved to Kansas City, went to public school instead of private, and spent my highschool years shortly after every single person acquired a touchscreen smart phone.
I remember things from AlbinoBlackSheep.com that my older brother would show me, like the Lord of the Rings "Potatoes/Taters" song/meme or Leroy Jenkins' charge while i was playing wow in elementary school, but mass-spread ubiquitous memes weren't really things within my realm or reality.
Am I to understand this was this significant and massive of a meme that it would take over the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade by 2008? Maybe just not having a phone until 13 and it being a flip phone at that and growing up in conservative Kentucky and attending a tiny cult-like private school really sheltered me early on.

I had the volume off and had no idea why this was posted. Maybe because the worm looks like a dick in a box.
