Last week I stumbled accross several links to a 20 year old song by Rick Astley: Never gonna give you up. First I did not understand what it was about. Then I learnt that it was an internet meme.

If you follow these links I am not responsible for any damage. But my favorite video so far is a JavaScript guru getting rickrolled the first time doing karaoke.
