I got the perfect ‘Rickroll’ tattoo — I’m never gonna give it up

Rick Astley’s “Never Gonna Give You Up” on repeat when it’s scanned with a smartphone.“In my friendship group, we’d Rickroll each other. I wanted to top everyone,” Meiying Rentas told SWNS.“Rickrolling” is a prank that involves trolling an unsuspecting person with a link to the music video for the 1987 tune.Rentas said she got her first tattoo when she was 18 and was “instantly hooked” — the molecule for serotonin and E = mc² are some of her early inkings.She has 97 drawings on her body, including Freddie Mercury and an olive branch and spider on the left side of her face.Rentas believes her markings are a “timeline” of her life — a flower tattoo covers a scar on her chest following emergency surgery to remove cysts.“I got a face tattoo after I met a girl at Starbucks with one and thought, ‘Wow, that is beautiful,'” Rentas recalled.
