Happy Thanksgiving!

[cleolinda]

So, what are we eating today?

(I don't actually know. I saw four pies downstairs, that's all I know. There might be a white chocolate cheesecake?)

ETA: EPIC NATIONAL RICKROLL. Man, the Macy's Parade got the man himself to do it. I don't think anyone can ever do it again. There will be no greater Rickroll.

CLEO

Thanksgiving just got Rickrolled. Rick Astley appeared on one of the floats in the Macy's Parade.

[visceralvamp]

But to answer your question:

Turkey, cornbread stuffing, mashed potatoes, buttered diced carrots, cranberry sauce, rolls, and chocolate pie.

[cleolinda]

OMFG. Did they actually play the song?

Oh. My. God.

That is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen.

*bows to the Astley*

That man owns all.

Awesome!

[lyrangalia]

Go Astley go! Embrace your meme-hood.

Well played, Astley. Well played.

Oh god, that is so fucking awesome. Now I kinda wish I'd actually watched the parade instead of reading trashy romance novels in the bathtub for 2 hours.

Linked it over on Snarkfest.

I knew this was going to happen but forgot all about it - that is awesome. Though, now grandmothers all across the country are asking "What did he say? What's a rickrolling? Honey, why are you laughing so hard?"

We are seeing the end of an era, people....

I called my mom and was like "did you see the Rickroll?" and she was like "the what?"

I attempted to explain, but it's not really the kind of thing you can explain. I have no idea what the parade people were thinking. By the advertisements for arthritis medication and Madagascar 2, it's clear they think kids and old folks are watching the parade, so I'm not sure which portion of their audience they were hoping would be amused by the ultimate Rickroll...

^^I had to explain rickrolling to my 15 yr old son, my husband and my mother. No one gets the joke. :(

[notemily]

I'd think the 15 year old would get it. in my head, 15 year old boys spend every waking minute on 4chan, though.

Honey, why are you laughing so hard?

This was exactly the reaction my mom and aunt had when they came in to see me laughing so hard I'd nearly fallen out of the chair.
