Like yeah ok, for the first 5 five times one sees it, it's like haha, lol, there it is! But, these do get old really fast for me.

For me it's now more like -wow. So that is literally the entire joke? Like oof, I guess they really wannted to be funny.-

EDIT: Updated the funi image to actually be what I wanted it to be... Took me a while, sorry.

Szeth what in the FUCK is that link. My dumb ass clicked on it because it looked like an Amazon link but I got a pop-up and some permission request and dude what the fuck.

~~Big doubt that's a legit link.~~ DRM is just scary lol

It’s a link to Amazon digital product. Specifically Rick Astley “The Best Of Me” album with Never Gonna Give You Up.

The “description” of the product doesn’t matter as long as the product code is the same.

https://www.amazon.com/Whatever-You-Want-Here/dp/B07X66DCLM

A trick I saw used a couple times on Reddit a few years back

Oh, okay. Thank you for explaining. I was a little freaked out.

Had that worked on me instead, it would have been pretty funny.

The permission request was probably just Firefox asking if Amazon Music is allowed to play DRM-controlled content (so music), so nothing inherently bad.
