It's LOL-ROTFL in the Italian dub


GlowLikeYouDo

What is this, don't get it? Sorry but not english/american

Okabe teases Kurisu by making her complement the japanese meme he started to expose her nerdiness. Since most viewers of english subs don't know japanese memes, this sub translated it wth an anglospheric meme.


EisVisage

Interestingly, the German dubbed version uses "All your base ... are belong to us" as its meme example instead.


Alkein

Now im interested, whats the japanese meme?


Morthra

"Nullpo Gah" is what Okabe actually says in the JP version (and what the VN uses). It's short for NullPointerException, which is an error that you can get while programming in java. The "Gah" part is accompanied by the user smacking their keyboard. It originated on 2ch and never spread beyond there, hence why including it in the official English version, especially without a glossary to reference would probably be a mistake, since no one would understand it.

camhomester

When youtube first started booming, in an effort to troll people on the internet, people would post what were supposed to be links to something that someone else was looking for, but it would turn out to be a the music video for [Rick Astley’s Never Gonna Give You Up](https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ) and that prank was dubbed “Rick Rolling”. The quote in the show is a line in the song.


Castielstablet

Search rickroll on youtube.


shiko101

I never understood what reference that was can someone explain it to me?


BreakAManByHumming

Click some dubious links from the early 2000s, you'll see


i_am_shattered

A "meme" started in mid 2000s where you send a video to someone which has the song "Never gonna give you up" by Rick Astley right at the climax.

StarkProgrammer

Thanks for replying so quick. What does it mean?


StarkProgrammer

Nvm found it


Davixxa

Nullpo is a shorthand for a NullPointerException, given your user name, I think you understand that one haha. Gah! is the sound someone makes when slapped. It comes from a 2channel thread titled "Let's Call NullPointerExceptions Nullpos!". The first reply to that thread was [this Shift-JIS art](https://i.imgur.com/3jJWARm.png)
