    Can someone help me understand this meme format? Why is it “no one:”? Shouldn’t it be “everyone:”?

    I get the joke in general but the words make no sense to me.

      Fuck, I’ve asked so many people this and all they say is “idk it’s just the meme format”

      WHY THOUGH.

      Fucking brainless…

      No one as in “no one asked.”

      No one asked to see Nana’s spoon collection, but here she goes showing it off anyway

      People can’t don’t double negatives it seems.

      They’re doing it in response to nothing, I guess. It’s really overused and only makes sense in certain circumstances.
