    Ha. I just held Enter down. That did the trick.

    We all needed this tip a few hours earlier John. What were you doing all this time?

    How to get out of a rickroll in 1 second in windows:

    CTRL + ALT + DEL

    I just love hearing john try to say “Rwick Rwoll”

    Or you can just turn off automatic move/resize in your javascript options in Firefox.

    Cheaper than buying a Mac.

    Hahahaha. April fools…. Just kidding.

    That’s what I always did. Hold enter.

    At least April 1st only comes around once a year. Next year I’m turning off my computer and I’m going for a walk, lol.

    I always just click the “X” up top until its’ done. Give it 30 seconds, no big deal.

    I love listening to that guy talk. Not that i care what he has to say, just love the accent…

    I said this on John Chow’s blog and I’ll say it again here:

    Question – How do you know when your April Fools Joke has backfired?

    Answer – When you have to make a new post explaining how to fix the problem caused by the previous post.

    John – Ctrl+Alt+Dlt gets you out of a “Wick Wolled” too ya’ know dude.

    And I actually got rolled on a Mac. But I couldn’t click quit cos I had 68 tabs running. Which sorta caused a problem. And Macs take way longer to press “Enter” through because each damn window has to slide on (at least with Leopard). Nice going dickheads. ;)

    Keep up the great work!

    – D

  21. April 2, 2008

    Not on a MAC it doesn’t. And you can’t quit when you have 60-odd tabs running. -_-

  22. April 2, 2008

    Watching is freaking stats to see how many poor losers (myself included) he’d caught out.

  23. April 2, 2008

    It was a joint April Fools day joke. Sheesh. Give Paul a break. I find it hilarious you’re demanding he right some “useful” posts, just for you, straight after asking him whether they’re a gay couple.

    Dude… You have alot to learn about influence & persausion. And manners for that matter.

  24. April 2, 2008

    Jokes are fine in their place. But their place is not on your money sites. Credibility comes hard and is lost quickly.

    Yes, the windows 3 Finger Salute gets rid of Rick but also my other 3 dozen tabs spread through 3 browser instances that I was busy with, some of which were large downloads.

    I need to be more discriminating in where get feeds from, I guess.

    Shoe’s video was funny and unintrusive…

    like i said over at the other photoshop king, you show that you ain’t nothing but a frustrated nerd. i hope you are enjoying the fact that you crashed windows and people lost work because of you..maybe you can add that to your earnings next time..

    (firefox)Wait For Window to Stop moving > Hit X on rickroll page > Hit X on dialog box & Refresh Rickroll Page At same time > It should reload the page & hit X on the dialog box, tab should close.

    rickroll, the new funny thing to do. Sad people still think this is the cool funny thing to do. Can’t wait until you guys hear about lolcats and the rest of the internet catches up with you…. lol.
