If the hit song 'Money for nothing' by prolific rock group Dire Straits is played at a function, event or gathering, guests are required to shotgun a beverage before the intro of the song concludes. If no cans are available, guests must finish the remainder of their current drink in a timely manner.

When a shot in basketball goes very cleanly through the hoop without touching it. Similar to "Nothing but net."

In a world where everything is offensive to someone, some people have gone to the other extreme, being offended by nothing - meaning they don't realize some things are still genuinely very offensive and shouldn't be joked about.
"Did you hear that some guy made a joke about Justin Bieber's facial disease that said, 'In five years, no one will come to Justin Bieber's concerts because his face will scare them away'?"
"Yeah. That was so wrong. Whoever made that should be ashamed. I don't like Justin Bieber, but I don't wish that upon anyone...and I definitely wouldn't make jokes about it. It's a serious disease and it probably sucks to have."
"...Unfortunately, the offended by nothing group vigorously defended the offensive joke after people called them out."
"What assholes."

Someone: Where do u buy that casing for ur iPhone?
Somebody: Oh no. This is not a casing. It is literally the design of this phone.
Someone: Oh, when did Apple put circle lighting on their iPhones?
Somebody: No no no. This isn't an iPhone.
Someone: Then what?
Somebody: It's nothing.
Someone show wrinkled face seem to be confused with the Nothing Phone branding.
