This is a joke I think you language addicts might enjoy.

A linguistics professor lecturing his students. "In some languages, such as English, double negative makes a positive; while in some languages, such as Russian, double negative resolves to a negative. In no language, however, double positive forms negative."
A voice piped up from the back of the classroom. "yeah right..."
