The Mayor of Boston Just Straight-Up Rick Rolled Someone on Twitter

The Rick Roll, a meme that we ironically will never, ever give up, struck again today, but this time it came from the mayor of Boston.

No, seriously.

Walsh held a Twitter Q&A today and fielded lots of questions, including this one:

@marty_walsh Mr. Mayor, you are a wonderful leader for our City. What motivates you? Who inspires you? #ASKMJW

— Laura Hamilton (@LHamilton822) June 10, 2015

This is how Walsh responded:

.@LHamilton822 This inspires me: http://t.co/UPCFHPq5wb

— Mayor Marty Walsh (@marty_walsh) June 10, 2015

And that link led to…

Yes, the mayor of Boston just straight-up rick rolled someone on Twitter. Was it on purpose? Was it a staffer being playful? Whatever the case, at least he kept it tame and didn’t go all Nyan Cat on us…
