I still don't really get how the "no one" tag works.
This meme works perfectly fine without "no one" preceding it.
Most "no one" memes do.
Why add the no one in front?
Is it like nobody asked to be told about this?
Thank you for your time

It’s a riff on the meme formats that go:
My cashier: …
Me: …
“No one:” represents something coming out of the blue, completely unprompted. It’s definitely getting overused, but that’s just an inevitable part of the lifecycle of a meme.
10 0 ReplyI don't mind it being used if it makes sense, but it seems unnecessary most of the time, drawing attention away from the meme.
I'd also like to point out that almost every answer about the no one memes describes a different reasoning for what it is used.
This implies its unnecessary quality. Subjective, important placeholder.

I hate it as much as I hate punchline images that tell you how to feel about it.

9 0 ReplyTHANK YOU! It has become a pet peeve of mine. I think it's supposed to reference "no one asked". But if that's the case, the meme should be
Nobody: "Hey I'd really like every music video to be shot with a fish-eye lens".
or
Everyone:
It doesn't make sense.
5 0 ReplyI think this is the first explanation I found searching, "no one asked", but yea, if that's correct, it is not super clear and is often redundant

"MTV turns 30 today and we would like to thank them for 5 years of music videos."
56 0 ReplyMTV is 42. Somehow though the 70s were only 30 years ago. These facts are simultaneously true.

Listening to how that video was made was awesome. It's so simple and obvious when it's explained to you, even if it's not particularly obvious on its face.
11 0 ReplyOh, it feels just like it should.

I really miss old school MTV though. I feel like, for a time, bands were doing some crazy music videos that were as much works of art as the music itself.
11 0 ReplyI do too. I remember for a short period, you'd go over to anyone's house and they'd just have MTV on a TV somewhere playing video after video.
It was immensely popular, and it was a fun way to passively see a bunch of artists without any effort.
