    It’s never used right. “Nobody” is supposed to mean someone does something unprompted and that no one asked for.

    But most of the time, it’s just tacked on the meme for no reason. Which…

      I always thought it was supposed to mean something like nobody said or did anything, and then _______ happened. Like the empty space after nobody was supposed to represent silence or nothingness. But even that doesn’t make sense. I’m just overanalyzing a stupid meme.

      The stupid part is that it doesn’t even make sense, it should be Everybody: or Nobody: please do x

      Or less awkwardly: “Please do x” -Nobody “I did x” -[whoever is relevant here]
