The punchline is literally absolute. When mathematicians say "no one," they use the regular number line with zero in the middle. But when they say "absolutely no one," they're using the absolute value function, which forces everything to be non-negative. That's why the slider is locked at zero on the second line - you can't go negative with absolute values. It's the mathematical equivalent of saying "I literally can't even... go below zero."
