FINALLY! “Never Gonna Give You Up” in Klingon
 |
You have not truly experienced Rick Astley until you’ve heard him in the original Klingon.

If there is a Topless Robot equivalent in Japan, this is what they would call a Super Terrific American Thing.

It really is a Klingon torture device.
I know it’s not nerdy but it is a special kind of horrible I felt compelled to thrust upon you. And THAT is the nerdy part.
