A linguistics professor was lecturing to his class one day. "In
English," he said, "a double negative forms a positive. In some
languages, though, such as Russian, a double negative is still a
negative. However, there is no language wherein a double positive can
form a negative."

A voice from the back of the room piped up, "Yeah, right."
