Double negative

In some languages, a double negative forms a positive. Is there a language wherein a double positive can form a negative?

If not, if we construct such a sentence - just out of curiosity - how would it look like?

A possible answer:

Sarcasm is a common method for negating positives--"so sweet," with the proper intonation, is another example.
