I am yet to understand what "nobody" adds to a meme. Still don't get it.

What client are you using?

The screenshot was taken on just default quokk.au in a browser, though I'm typing this in Boost.

-Nobody thinks this way

-Someone that thinks that way

we should estimate ourselves lucky, at least, that the

"no one:
absolutely no one:
not a single soul:"

era is over

And now your reference to it will resurrect the meme like a Phoenix from the ashes.

Nobody:

When used properly it makes sense. But there are only rare occasions when that is appropriate. So instead everyone just uses it all the time and so no one really understands when it should be used. Dumb.

The original meme got mangled beyond recognition and into making no sense

The original was used as quote attribution

Like:

"I am a huge fan of EA"

-- nobody

To continue this logic, if "nobody" says nothing it could be construed as the start of the conversation, implying the subject came to the conclusion without prompting or context

The way I understand it, it's a play on "Nobody asked" using Colon denoted dialogue

Nobody: [insert question]

And has become increasingly esoteric through extended use

Its prefacing the answer to an unsolicited question.

Laptop is a misnomer, especially gaming ones, because they get too hot to be in your lap. Workstations, notebooks, Ultrabooks, etc, all different classifications.

Upside, if you do use it on your lap, it doubles as birth control. (Joke, please do not do this).

It identifies as laptop until you start the game.

they're just the modern version of those old portable desktops, just with a battery so you don't fly into a gamer rage when someone trips over the power cable.
