Duckroll

Unlike the Rickroll, the Duckroll is original and funny. It is made of awesome and win. To "duckroll" is to intentionally misdirect people on a chan imageboard to a different thread containing a picture of a duck with wheels, or of an animated gif of a toy duck rolling across the screen. The overall intent is to piss everyone off via deception.

How to Duckroll

1. Create a thread, using this as the opening image
2. Go to another thread (or many other threads for full effect)
3. Link to your thread (i.e. >>########) and act as if you're posting some kind of intriguing response to someone else in the thread, prompting other channers to click your link.

Note: It is, of course, also possible to do this outside of the chans, so long as you know how to create redirects or disguised links. This usually requires knowledge of tinyurl or other similar URL redirectors.
