    A student has reinvented the good old Rick-roll in one of the best ways imaginable: by turning an essay that he wrote about networks into the classic bait and switch meme from a few years ago.

    The student explains:

    Everyone in my computing class is certain the teacher doesn’t actually go through ANY work we hand in. So I’ve been up for the last few hours crafting this. The first paragraph started as an idea to use ridiculously complex words to confuse him (English is his second language), do that for a bit then just go Fresh Prince on him, but that got boring.

    If you want to read through it all and figure out what I’ve done to it (aside from writing complete bullshit), read through it now and don’t read the next line.

    Read the first word of every line that touches the left margin (so everything that isn’t indented). It’s taken eight cups of coffee, but I finally did it. Rickrolling my computing teacher in style.

    EDIT: I handed it in just over an hour ago. Next lesson is on Friday, but I doubt he’ll ever give it back. If he does, it will probably just have a few ticks on it or something.

    I’ll do a follow up if he finds the Rickrolling though.

    [I couldn’t resist. What can I say? I missed out on the whole rick-rolling thing the first time around when it was actually funny (if it ever was), here’s the real source: Geeko System]
