I had to read it a half dozen times to figure out what it meant. My favorite thought before I realized the use of the double negative was superfluous:

“What’s a no grill?”

I guess the Rolling Stones should have their top hits rescinded for double negatives then? It can’t be a top hit, it has bad grammar!

Should we rewrite “I can’t get no satisfaction” as “I cannot get satisfaction” to remove the double negative and the contraction?

What even is this nonsense. You must be fun at parties.
