When someone puts a missleading title on a video on Youtube that halfway through switches to the music video "Never Gonna Give You Up", by Ricky Astley. Usually done right before an anticipated scene in the video.

To expose one to excess amounts of Rick Astley. More specifically, his song "Never Gonna Give You Up."
Dude: Dude, check out this amazing video.

Rick Rolling is commonly thought of as linking a friend, who thinks they are getting something desirable, to a video of Rick Astley's "Never Gonna Give You Up", though this is not always the case. A Rick Roll may be amplified by having the window fly around your screen and, upon closure, release a stream of popups (usually displaying the lyrics) that will open as you close the previous, as seen at raygoldmodels.com. These can be humorous to witness over the shoulder, as well as to have an email response to.
Man, after I Rick Rolled my friend, he was super duper pissed off at me.
I like to close the popups as their respective lyrics end whenever I get Rick Rolled.

When searching for video on youtube.com and instead of getting what you want you end up watching one of Rick Astley's music videos...

Austin:" HA you got Rick Rolled"
