      It started off with something like

      "People say: X

      Object in meme says: y!"

      Someone made a meme saying

      "Nobody:

      Object in meme says: y"

      And it was amusing

      Then EVERYONE did it and now you might as well not even have the top part anymore.

      Example of original style:

        But what does Nobody: mean? How does it relate to the second part of the meme? Why is it funny??? I’m still confused.

          It is terribly worded, so it’s unnecessarily confusing and unclear, but it means ‘nobody says (or does) anything’, thus indicating that the second action is unprompted.

            Thank you. I’m getting some slightly different answers here though so I wonder if everyone even agrees on what this means.

          Nobody followed by blank means that nobody else is saying, doing, or thinking of whatever the last subject is doing
