This meme format always annoys me because of the double negative. If "nobody" says nothing, then surely everyone says something.

Having said that, my native language uses double negative, for example "nobody said nothing" does mean that nobody said anything, but for some reason in the way the meme presents it and English language, it does not work for me.
