No, no, no, no. This boy is going to get an F!! You never, ever use first or second person in a proper essay (that is the “you” and the “we”) also contractions(“you’re”, “we’ve”) are huge mistakes in formal writing. Lastly, that doesn’t look like proper MLA to me, what it looks like is s**t. I say thumbs down.

This only deserves an A- at best. The verses aren’t separated by paragraph, and you can see that he put in some double spaces to make the highlighted words bump to the next line.
Could someone like write it down here so i can use it as my homework?
I’m too lazy to do it and i only read the highlighted words so could someone who actually read it write it down for me?
I say epic
Pretentious language is how you meet the word requirements.
It’s also a good evasive strategy depending on your intended audience. I’m guessing this essay was written for a class taught by an industry professional who only assigned an essay because the program requires it and not because they really enjoy reading them; and/or a cynical professor who rolls their eyes at the notion of requiring a future tech or programmer to write an essay in the first place.
I once had to write an essay for a math class and babbled on about chaos theory for five pages. The only reason I passed the class was on the “strength” of that essay because I couldn’t actually do the math.
yes, because it’s entirely more likely that the first words of every line just randomly spelled out a song than it is that someone intentionally made it that way.
Aha. You’ve just been trolled in a meta-troll by an obvious troller pretending to be a trollee, when the trollee was actually trolling for a troller.
Bravo, Jon. I tip my hat.
At first you think it’s just a dumb comment. Then you realize every dumb comment is a troll in disguise. Or a bait for a troller to be trolled. Or for a troller to troll a troller who’s trolling.
Does he know that I know he knows. And if I know he knows I know, does he know I know that he knows I know?
SOMEone likes the teacher.

Meta-trolling.
Never gonna Facebook you, never gonna thumb you down, never gonna Tweet around, or Tumble you.
Absolute class!
Too long, didn’t read.
Yeah, those 66 words were quite a strain. One was seven letters long! Some of them were even two syllables!
That must mean you actually counted them. For that, I love you.
I got 68. Words.
Good. You do me and I’ll owe you one.
+1 for this:
BANANAS.
Now it’s 69.
lol
69
lol
Words with two syllables confuse me too
But “confuse” has two syllables.
Syllables has three.
I’m mixed up.
grandma didn’t say 3 syllable words confuse her. Just 2 syllable.
Word.
Word has one syllable
EPIC WIN! Congratulations to the genius who Rick Rolled thier teacher while completing an assignment.
The amount of planning that must’ve went into this to get it right…amazing!
WOW!
Epic win!
wow
Hurt computers, that actually sounds really sad
This… is… the… best… trolling… EVER… IN… HISTORY
it was in computing class you noob
I think he meant that it was the best troll of all time.
You sir, are an idiot, a dunce, and possibly trollbait.
At least the prof knows they spent some serious time doing their homework.
Best. Paper. EVAR.
first i was like tldr, but then i lol’d because i only read the first words which are highlighted.
did you realize its a song text from rick astley?
lol I love how eveyone trolls in the comments here xD
Holy sh*t really?
Second that
Who’s Rick Astley?
It’s spelled “Ashley,” moron, and he’s a British rapper. Basically Eminem stole all his moves from Rick, who was the original badass.
Is that your final answer?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rick_Astley
You, sir, have just been successfully trolled.
You’ve been trolled, you’ve been trolled, you have probably been told…
BAHAHahahahah
what is the internet
Twenty-whaaa?n
5 people have no sense of humor
make that 6 as of today
It’s sad, isn’t it, that 7 people have no sense of humor?
13 people should burn in hell.
15.
Make that 16.
18, now.

I thought it was over 9000…
IT’S OVER NINE THOUSAND!
20 people need to listen to good music
Unbelievable!!! That is totally epic. I’ve always wanted to do something like that but I’m not smart enough…
*head explodes from epicness*
True! Now where is the Favorite button already????
No, no, no, no. This boy is going to get an F!! You never, ever use first or second person in a proper essay (that is the “you” and the “we”) also contractions(“you’re”, “we’ve”) are huge mistakes in formal writing. Lastly, that doesn’t look like proper MLA to me, what it looks like is s**t. I say thumbs down.
Could be that it’s not a level where you need MLA format yet.
Or they don’t use it there…
Like.
You didn’t read deep enough into the essay! It talks about true love and happiness! you’ll never understand!
I want to know what sort of teachers you had, that you think conventions form fully 41% of an essay’s grade.
U guys suck so much i dont even know how much u suck
Now this truly puts the “Art” in Art of Trolling.
How yinz doing
can someone tell me why this post is entitled “never gonna give you an A”?
i would give this an A++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Love you Pop
I love you.
And this, my friends, is why grades above A should exist.
Holy s**t, if this doesn’t deserve an A, then . . . then . . .
aargh . . .
Never thought you could Rick-Roll on an essay.
Good way to turn a work of 45 minutes into a task for the whole weekend.
Epic win nevertheless.
This only deserves an A- at best. The verses aren’t separated by paragraph, and you can see that he put in some double spaces to make the highlighted words bump to the next line.
plus the first and second person is going to blow it to hell. And contractions just arent classy.
Even less so when you forget the apostrophe
This… is… Legendary!
No.
THIS….
IS…..
SPARTAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
NO THIS IS PATRICK
This made my day. Thank you.
The failure of this assignment is EPIC.
I don’t know why you all think it’s a WIN.
XD
first word has no space, also is ”never has” a proper sentence?
FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKE.
The first word has no space so that the word “going” will appear on the next line. Because this was intentional.
You know, because TROLLING is intentional by definition.
And no, “never has” is not a proper sentence, but it is a proper PHRASE, and it was used as such.
HOMERUN!!!!!! Its about time!!!!
this is the most epic account of trolling, EVAR….
you obviously haven’t seen the kid who got convinced to brick his dad’s computer by /b/
SSSHHH. The first rule of the internet is – you do not talk about /b/.
The second rule of the internet is – YOU DO NOT TALK ABOUT /B/.
>:(
Newfag just failed at life. Rules 1 and 2 apply to raids. You DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES CAPITALIZE /b/!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1four.
WIN.
Could someone like write it down here so i can use it as my homework?
I’m too lazy to do it and i only read the highlighted words so could someone who actually read it write it down for me?
I say epic
sure check lemonparty.org for file-hosting, search for “rick roll paper.” should come up
Full of Win!
Epic win deffinitely one of a kind !!!!! kudos
Subliminal messaging FTW!

Trolls trolling trolls.
And here is what the student who wrote it says about it.
http://www.inquisitr.com/87926/professor-gets-rickrolled-in-a-students-essay/
this is a complete rambling
quit using pretentious language and attempt to convey meaning
as for the song lines, pretty cool lol

TL;DR wats it about?
I wonder how long it took to put that together..
pure. epic. WIN.
too long, didn’t read.
i just got rickroll’d through a college paper.
i feel sort of accomplished.
Epic RickRolling!
garrrr, where the add button, i wana add this

epic assignment trolling..
I don’t get it….
I’m probably gonna get a lot of comments saying that I’m dumb, but I don’t get it…
why cant you favorite it?
A+ for roll’d. B- for paper.
this is the greatest rick roll’d ever
EPIC WIN!!
He didn’t capitalize the title. No A for him.
At first I was all “tl;dr”
But then I was all “wait… never.. gonna.. give.. you… Woah.”
EPIC WIN!!!
Probably just a coincidence.
yes, because it’s entirely more likely that the first words of every line just randomly spelled out a song than it is that someone intentionally made it that way.
Not recognizing an obvious troll wins you the nubfag of the year award.

Does he know that I know he knows. And if I know he knows I know, does he know I know that he knows I know?
Diabolical.
