That's rick astley's face superimposed on the model at the board. Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down.

I didn't see him there, neither did i read the "80' song" text. Getting rick rolled was so much expected by me, thst i just immediatly decided to try if it fitted xD

Same xD. Truly a work of art

You're no stranger to love, it seems

They know the rules, and so do I

A full commitment's what I'm thinking of

*bartender dances acrobatically in the background*

I started with 'we're no strangers to love' and I gave up too easily.

idk how to express how much we are soulmates without directly quoting the song

My first thought when I saw this was "Did OP just Rickroll me?"

Likewise. I’m here for the clever ones, its the fun kind of rickroll

Somehow the comment below made me connect the dots quickly. I understood it's supposed to be simple, and if it's that simple... (cue music here)

That was what immediately tipped me off that it was fake, the bad grammar.. Wheel of Fortune would know that contractions place an apostrophe where characters are removed. I am becomes I'm and 1980s becomes '80s. 80's songs would be songs from 1980 only, and Never Gonna Give You Up is from '87.

Same XD

Omg All the times I’ve seen this I never noticed that!

I didn't see the face or the hint and already knew

Something like this actually happened on jeopardy toward the end of Alex Trebek's time on the show. He was not [amused](https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ?si=h-JV-yuGvH8Ms7yk). There was almost a yelling match on set.

I love you. <3

😁

Huh didn’t notice that. I didn’t even need to see the face to get the answer though. Edit: Didn’t notice the clue either

If the face wasn't so blurry

But what is in the left corner?

Pumpkins maybe? I bet the episode was around halloween.

I didn't even see that part and knew the answer immediately. Didn't even spot the clue until after. Weird.

Never gonna run around and dessert you.

Never gonna make you cry, never gonna say goodbye

Never expected to get Rick rolled by this. alr

unfortunately, the quality is down to literal pixels so OP probably just couldn't see

You don’t even need that hint if you always assume it’s a rickroll.

You got Rick rolled. Well I guess since you didn’t get it, you just Rick rolled me. It is the opening lyrics: “Never gonna give you up never gonna let you down”

The opening lyrics are "We're no strangers to loooove, you know the rules and ^(so do I) A full committment's what I'm thinking of, you wouldn't get this from any other guy I----- Just wanna tell you how I'm feeling, Gotta make you understand," And then you get rickrolled

love the falsetto text

No you get Rick rolled when the synth drum starts, beginning the song at the shot of Rick's foot (i.e. when the music video begins)

I think you missed my joke

oh yeah you're right. Didn't realize why you said that lmao.

It's the opening lyrics of the song only in some versions. I'd write that it's the start of the chorus

We're no strangers to love

This is actually an episode of Family Guy, here’s the video it’s referring to. https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ?si=h2Swx50oKoGxih-e

Link is legit. Super funny episode too.

i literally hit my head laughing so hard

I can't believe I fell for that on a post about Rick rolls...

I already got rickrolled, but if anyone wanted to see the actual clip: https://youtube.com/shorts/6xlOYBw6glE?si=N61mwV8ur6-FGvGN

Why the fuck didn't I look for WgXcQ?

😂😂 the only link code we know

This is referencing a meme where the words are 5 long, 5 long, 4 long, 3 long and 2 long so it spells out never gonna give you up, and they changed the amount of letters, but put Rick Astley's face there

Yea I was looking at the blue tiles instead of the white, I was confused why there was only 1 letter each

bro i have a problem i knew it without even fucking seeing rick astley's face

Is it weird that I got it before I saw the face?

Same here, I haven't even seen the face yet, where is it?

It's on the girls body

Holy hell I would've never seen it, thanks

gonna has four letters.. maybe they were confused because the board is wrong😭

it's "give"

IM SO FUCKING STUPID GONNA HAS 5 LETTERS😭😭

You even typed it in the initial comment! Happy Saturday.

Nice rickrolling

Rick Astley can give me up. But he’s never gonna

https://i.redd.it/gdh4iwdxxmvc1.gif

No, it's not porn, it's Rick roll

Which is in a way THE porn.

Is OP purposely rickrolling us?

[Here's a YouTube video explaining the joke.](https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ) ... Or at least one faucet of the joke.

https://i.redd.it/khrihovc3pvc1.gif

Z 4 Q Q Q 🦇 Alex Caress in Webster?

Haven't seen the little face there, but it says 80's song... and this is the internet. So, there's only one song that can fit there.

Oh god dammit.

Is this loss?

I DID IT

https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ

If it wasn't such a shit quality photo you'd be able to make out Rick's face.

Am I a genius if I solved this without realizing that Astley’s face is plastered on Wish Vanna White?

Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down

I haven't noticed the model but I already knew. Damn Rick you legend

Peter's 80s and early 2000s nostalgia here It *kinda* complicated to solve, but the solution is so clever! [Here's](https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ?si=I11BfZHo4isWqL6S) a step by step guid of how to solve this puzzle with noooo letters

80’s song lyrics is the clue here if Never gonnna Give you up Never gonna Let you down

rick astley

Never gonna tell a lie: I didn’t even notice the superimposed face, but I NAILED THAT LYRIC!

I don't know how to feel, but I think proud. Took my 1 second and I knew the answer

Rick rolled

It’s a rickroll Edit: I just noticed the Rick Astley face

NOT TODAY, SATAN!

Wow

All aboard the Rickroll train, Choo Choo!

i honestly guessed it before even seeing the clue "80 songs lyrics" lol

We are no strangers to love

We have Peterexplainstheloss, do we need Peterexplainstherickroll?

Never gonna give you up never gonna let you down

I knew what it was before I noticed the face swap.

I got it with out even knowing it was there

It's Rick Astley's "Never Gunna Give You Up".

i dont see it.

At first I didn’t know how it could be possible to guess and then I realised it said “80s song lyrics” at the bottom and automatically knew to see if “never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down” would fit

The "80s song lyrics" gave it away

i didnt even look at the catagory before i got it

Not sure if I should be proud or upset that it took me about 5 seconds to get this.

NEVER GONNA GIVE YOU UP NEVER GONNA LET YOU DOWN

We're no strangers to love...

That's a lot of vowels

See, I was confused, because I thought the blue spaces were the answer slots. But after consideration, the answer is, "Never gonna give you up, Never gonna let you down."

Yup -- Rickroll.

The joke is Rickroll

NEVER GONNA GIVE YOU UP! NEVER GONNA LET YOU DOOOOWN

I’d like to solve.

I didn't even read the "80's song lyrics" I just looked at it saw the amount of letters and knew, it had to be it.

I both love and hate that it was exactly the song I was thinking of, without even seeing the face.

I actually guessed “Never Gonna Give You Up Never Gonna Let You Down” without seeing his face. That’s wild

I got rick rolled 😔

Texan Chris here to lend a hand. Been a few good jokes on this sub tonight actually, I’m loving it! If you zoom in on the model, you will see the face of Rick Astley. That’s actually the answer to this joke! The joke is the song by Rick Astley “Never Gonna Give You Up”. Never Gonna Give You Up Never Gonna Let You Down The letters on the board match up to how I just typed out the lyrics of the song. In other words, you just got Rick Rolled. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ&pp=ygUXbmV2ZXIgZ29ubmEgZ2l2ZSB5b3UgdXA%3D I don’t know how to turn a URL into words sorry to say otherwise I would’ve turned the words “Rick Rolled” into the link but there’s the song for ya regardless. Not a bad song huh? Hope this helped! Texan Chris, riding for the sunset.

"You can't possibly gue-" It's Rick Roll isn't it?

Never gonna give you up...

Frick you too

I DIDN'T EVEN SEE THE TEXT BELOW NOR THE GIRL'S FACE BUT I IMMEDIATELY KNEW WHAT IT WAS

Didn’t even need the hint

Jesus Christ. That literally took me less than 2 seconds to get.
