I read about a week ago that Rick was going to be in the Macy's Parade, and I just sat there thinking, "He'd better Rick Roll the whole world. That would be AWESOME!"
So what happens today, during the Macy's Parade... but him, Rick Rolling THE WHOLE FUCKING WORLD.
So there I am, just sitting there kind of watching, kind of talking to my family, when the Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends float comes up, and I'm like, "Huh, Foster's, that's kinda cool." Then they start singing this really cheesy little kid song about best friends and I go, "...Okay, not so cool anymore. XD" And then I hear a record scratch... AND RICK ASTLEY STEPS OUT WITH "NEVER GONNA GIVE YOU UP" STARTING TO PLAY!
I exploded with laughter and fell out of my seat (I'm pretty sure I punched the floor a few times XD), then started singing with Rick and I was laughing SOO hard. My family was staring at me like I was crazy, but OMFG. THAT WAS THE SINGLE MOST AWESOME THING THAT HAS EVER, EVER HAPPENED IN THE HISTORY OF THE PARADE. PERIOD.
Here's a video of it in case any of you missed it (sorry for the crap quality, but it's all I could find):
(LOL at the guy in the background going "Woot!" toward the end XD)
And earlier Elmo was dancing and it looked like he was doing pelvic thrusts, but I digress.
