  • Hegemony, on 01/12/2009, -9/+1009Damn... I thought it was rather amusing (although the rickroll is a bit old hat now) up until the part about beating people. That's just kind of stupid. They had a perfectly good plan for psychological warfare before they ***** it up.
  • FrozenGonad, on 01/12/2009, -15/+750It seemed funny until they started beating up old people and being racist....
  • mannyfreshh, on 01/12/2009, -18/+638I feel sorry for these rickroll'ers. Not for what will happen when the authorities catch them, but what will happen when Chuck Norris catches them.
  • Brododium, on 01/12/2009, -3/+607Sorry, I'm redeeming one of my Digg 'Fake' coupons on this one.
  • yourmartdotnet, on 01/12/2009, -11/+389This adds a whole new dimension to rickrolling. Actually rolled wow
  • cruzlee, on 01/12/2009, -9/+358Those damn /b/-fundamentalists. First they killed Oprah, now this.

  • zakbroman, on 01/12/2009, -32/+245newfags
  • absolutelytrue, on 05/26/2009, -3/+215Well, that was friggin' bizarre.
  • ByrcheWroot, on 01/12/2009, -1/+201Likewise. I was laughing until the "beating" came up.
  • kanojo1969, on 01/12/2009, -3/+199can't believe some people thought this was genuine, just look at the impossible acts from /b/tards:

    - they were outside
    - they danced
    - they beat someone up

    Story may as well have said 'they flew through the sky like superman'.
  • p1eiades, on 01/12/2009, -1/+188The interent is the internet's evil twin.
  • latin69, on 01/12/2009, -6/+179This is what happens when people can't distinguish the difference between 4chan and the physical real world........... sounds like 4chan the movie!
  • alexp2ad, on 01/12/2009, -0/+166Ditto, "interent"? "attack spree"? Calling police "cops" in a newspaper article?

    I'd also like to cash in one of my coupons please.
  • inactive, on 01/12/2009, -6/+158Damn you all to hell Ricky!
  • dasmonki, on 01/12/2009, -3/+138Man the interent is messing up my town too. Stupid interent.
  • inactive, on 01/12/2009, -1/+119First I was like :D
    Then I was like :O
    Then I was like :(
  • Culyt, on 01/12/2009, -7/+99Knowing 4channers they guy that called a ***** was white.

    Isn't that like almost unracist?

  • GeyserShitdick, on 01/12/2009, -2/+90HAY GUYZ DID U NO THAT RELIGOIN IS PRETTY BAD
  • TheFinaleofSeem, on 01/12/2009, -25/+112Then it was hilarious.
  • PeanutCheeseBar, on 01/12/2009, -0/+81"Never gonna beat you up, never gonna knock you down"...
  • DarkShroud, on 01/12/2009, -11/+92We're talking about Chuck Noris, not your father.
  • DoodleMaster, on 01/12/2009, -2/+78Why did they say it's from the internet and call him the n-word? Too...albeit realistic of the ***** that happens on the internet....

    Chuck Norris rick astley Ninjas racial slurs and anonymity could we fit anymore memes?

    This article has to be fake it's just all too coincidental.
  • Sublex, on 01/12/2009, -2/+69Dugg for "interent".
  • ZenFu, on 01/12/2009, -13/+80@zakbrowman.

    Correction. CANCEROUS newfags.

    Jesus. I saw a group of people cosplaying as V (anon) yesterday. Asked them if they lieked mudkipz and then found out that they're newfags actually telling people about imgboard. They weren't protesting scientology or doing anything anon-related, just wanted to wear their costumes in public.

    WTF? We need chemo.

    Oh and gravity? Blow me. This is the internet. Political correctness does NOT apply here. Everyone's a target, including you. If you don't like what you're reading, disconnect.
  • QsheiK, on 01/12/2009, -0/+62Real internet = Goatse
    Fake interent = Goatee
  • belebih, on 01/12/2009, -6/+67"They called me a n---r and said 'this is from the interent' - it was horrible."

    I'm sorry but that's just hilarious.
  • Denominator88, on 01/12/2009, -1/+58It took over 9000 penises to kill Oprah.
  • theradical, on 01/12/2009, -2/+57A Clockwork Astley
  • markpoepsel, on 01/12/2009, -0/+51That's one of the first lessons of AP style: police are police...not "Cops" Also, the headline seems separated from the rest of the text. It looks like this was typed to look like a newspaper, not scanned.

    Also, [expletive] is a more common term than to *** out the offending word. All signs point to comment-speak not newspaper style.
  • sat0shi, on 01/12/2009, -5/+55So you guys know this is from a "newspaper article generator" type of thing right? It's not a real article. There are tons of these generator type apps floating around the net. Come on guys, don't be so gullible.
  • talonstriker, on 01/12/2009, -0/+50I agree, too many spelling mistakes to it to be from a real newspaper.
  • TrevorBelmont, on 01/12/2009, -2/+49No, here's a clipping from a different newspaper that backs up the story.

  • jdh24, on 01/12/2009, -7/+54the internet don't care bout black people.

    but in all seriousness, if this is true, some people need to stop taking the internet so serious.
  • zip000, on 01/12/2009, -0/+45They should have squeezed in a lolcat at least.

    Maybe one of the guys should have dressed like a cat and screamed, "I can haz cheezburgr" at people while throwing cheeseburgers at them.
  • aixelsyD, on 01/12/2009, -4/+48Assaulting the elderly is a punk ass thing to do.

    Ball-less little ***** hiding behind Chuck Norris.

    Damn kids have no respect.
  • inactive, on 01/12/2009, -1/+44My first thought was that Scientologists dressed up like anon and attacked people to discredit them. Is that too paranoid of me?
  • Scrappy1850, on 01/12/2009, -1/+43dugg for interent
  • DoodleMaster, on 01/12/2009, -4/+44@ shrikedoa sat0shi

    Fail.

  • MrFurious2k, on 01/12/2009, -3/+43I don't know what the "interent" is... but I'm already afraid.
  • Huangism, on 01/12/2009, -2/+41o noes not the interent!!
  • drummerguy520, on 01/12/2009, -0/+39I bet he thought he would get lots of diggs with that one too.
  • miggyb, on 01/12/2009, -0/+35Wait, which one is evil again?
  • roodammy44, on 01/12/2009, -0/+34I don't think it was real.
    Print out random story as article, scan it in again and submit it as real.
    In short:
    SAUCE
  • franklymister, on 01/12/2009, -0/+34It's not too hard to make a fake http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3359/3191770876_8cc ...

    Thank you clipping generators http://www.fodey.com/generators/newspaper/snippet. ...
  • Altair27, on 01/12/2009, -0/+32"never gonna surround you, and hurt you"
  • punkcat, on 01/12/2009, -3/+35which part? the beating of a 68 year old or the racist slurs?
  • habbofresh, on 01/12/2009, -0/+31Then that means they're progressive!
  • wdw25, on 01/12/2009, -0/+30"never gonna make you cry, never gonna punch you in the eye"...
  • chronopublish, on 01/12/2009, -0/+30This is what happens when diggers can't tell the difference between real news and fake news.
