Did you know that those are special cows? They're outstanding in their field.

I had an uncle who thought cows were a mythical creature because he was born with such poor eyesight and could never see them out the window on trips.

Hopefully he wasn't the driver on those trips!

Why are people so passionately hateful of the "Nobody" at the top?

Like yeah it's unnecessary, but that's kinda part of the joke.

No, the "Nobody" is meant to show that the following line is a conversation started apropos of nothing.

A lot of memes don't need a starting context and aren't in the form of a conversation, so the "Nobody" is pointless and betrays that there wasn't much thought put in.

You just gave me a great idea.
