@marblevolcano, would it be OK if I snip your awesome lyrics (plus the follow-ups) and move them to this thread?

hmm… tough call… the song is vaguely poetic, but i think a parody of the rick roll is well suited under memes, no?

@trohde I don’t see any reason why it can’t be in both places… :wink:
I could copy the parody and paste it into the poetry chat, rather than removing it from the Memes page. It certainly belongs in the Memes page if anywhere, but if it speaks to you as poetry it absolutely should go there as well.

Not a meme.

You could also write a novel based on Astley’s song, but that doesn’t make the novel a meme, either.

Despite what many YT video titles say, there’s a difference between ostensibly “funny pictures”, “funny videos” and memes. Poems by themselves aren’t memes either, though some poem blueprints can be (roses are red / violets are blue / this poem ain’t funny / but it illustrates my point) as well as punchlines (e.g. the Chinese “My dad is Li Gang”).
