Positive?

Being a Neuro Linguistic Programming Practitioner, I appreciated this one from guy-sports.com

51sSK3e5bSL._SS500_[1]A linguistics professor was lecturing 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 loud voice from the back of the room piped up, 'Yeah, right!'
