Is it possible to Rickroll the Borg?

[Plecostomus]

Clearly I have way too much time on my hands...

 

[Haytil]

Isn't that what they tried to do in "I, Borg?"

 

[Jack Bauer]

Only on Voyager.

 

[Cicero]

Only if it will end this nonsense.

 

[Forbin]

I don't even know what that means.

 

[Starlock]

(Borg & Google = Borgle...?)

A bogus link which takes you to a different website than it claims to.

The name Rickroll comes from the one given out to people which actually links them to view a Rick Astley video.

 

[Forbin]

That's ... heinous!

Even knowing what this thread's about, it's really hard to resist the temptation...

Why would you want to direct the Borg to a Rick Astley video?

Although the lyrics "Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you go" do sound a little nicer than "you will be assimilated" maybe.

Rick Rolling the Borg = Justifiable excuse to total extermination of the offending species.

 

[Plecostomus]

Is that why they carry those multi-kinetic neutronic mines for?

Nah, those a for people still posting "All your bases" and ORLY owls.

To destroy the Borg of course.

 

[STIntergalactic]

Just put Rick Astly on a shuttle on send him towards the delta quadrant and maybe they'll accidentally assimilate him under the impression that it was something cooler.

 

[Meredith]

One wonders if they had a Tom Riker type replication transporter, if they couldn't SPAM the borg with one person that is assimilated millions of billions of times and that person would eventually become some monolithic in the collective that they could take over the collective from within.

It's been 20 years and I still can't figure out how THAT voice came out of a guy who looks like Jimmy Olsen!

Kind of like this guy.

Sure, Captain Jean Luc Picard had Geordi's unsolvable geometric pattern that would've collapsed the Borg from within, causing exponentially-increasing resources to be dedicated to solving it with each new upload from cube to cube, queen to queen until it reached the machine planet Spock viewed from his space suit & jet-pack several decades before the ENT-D.
