rick

If you thought Retro Rocket was all serious and retro-serious BASIC, think again. Type rick at the shell and brace yourself for a pixel-art performance you didn’t ask for but secretly wanted.

What happens

A glorious blocky rendition of Rick Astley appears.
A chiptune-style tracker version of that song begins.
You’ve officially been rickrolled by your operating system.

How to escape

Press any key when you’ve had enough (if that’s even possible). Until then, you’re never gonna give it up, never gonna let it down…

Example

rick

Notes

Works best with speakers turned up to 11.
Side effects may include involuntary dancing and confused pets.
You cannot un-see the pixel art. It lives in your mind forever.
