Can someone explain what's up with the memes that start with "Nobody:" - eviltoast

I don’t understand the “Nobody” part, especially since in most memes it’s just blank. It makes sense when “Nobody” was saying something that most people disagree with, eg:

Nobody: I love slamming my fingers in a car door

Ford: New F-150 now comes with a dedicated finger-slamming door

That would make sense. It’s a joke about someone being out of touch with popular sentiment. But the ones where it’s:

Nobody:

Optimus prime taking a bath: Ahh, my electronics!

It seems like the nobody part doesn’t relate to the meme in any way, except for being a common format for presenting things.

    It used to make sense, like… people that need no provocation to go into something they won’t shut up about, or things like that. Lately it has just stopped being used in any way that actually makes the “Nobody:” part matter.
