Rickroll












Rickrolling is a prank and Internet meme involving the music video for the 1987 Rick Astley song "Never Gonna Give You Up". In a rickroll, a person provides a link they claim is relevant to the topic at hand which actually takes the user to the Astley video. It can also mean playing the song loudly in public in order to be disruptive.[1] A person who falls for the prank is said to be "rickrolled". In some cases, this term is also used to describe a person who merely hears the song. (more...)

You blockhead!

from wikipedia:

In HTML and XHTML, the blockquote element defines a block quotation within the text. The syntax is <blockquote>blockquoted text goes here</blockquote>.

The blockquote element is used to indicate the quotation of a large section of text from another source. Using the default HTML styling of most web browsers, it will indent the right and left margins both on the display and in printed form.


The excerpt above uses the blackquote tag and is an example of how it can be styled.
