    Nobody saying nothing is logically equivalent to someone saying something.

    What you want is “nobody said anything.”

      No. Nothing was said. Nobody said it. The meme wouldn’t make sense if it was;

      No one: anything

        That is the only version that actually makes sense. It literally comes out as “no one said anything”. Isn’t that what’s supposed to be implied: there was silence, interrupted by something no one asked for?

          I don’t know how else to explain it. I guess you just have to be against the Internet one this one.
