OMG! Barney!! You’ve just dragged me back 10+ years to my son’s childhood and that damned purple grinning loon. You’re between a rock and a hard place if it’s a choice between Clippy and the master of “I love you, you love me”… 😀
There are some not very nice girls at work who wear purple often. Now I will simply think of them as Barney and giggle wickedly at them instead of shrinking into a paranoid shadow of my former self.
Oh she loves Clippy – he’s so – well – upbeat! Makes a good counterbalance to her moody dark self, and frankly he’s a sycophant and she lurves those lots – even Goth sycophants.
I don’t have to spare your feelings, Clippy! You’re a paperclip. You exist only to hold papers together that I don’t want stapled, and if you’re lucky to be used to pick locks by the guy on Burn Notice, or in some wild contraption by MacGyver.
Thankyou – now I understand Barney was a kiddie TV show, yes? But he couldn’t have been worse than Teletubbies! In any event, I shall not seek out Wiki’s entries.

Barney the dinosaur was declined by France Télévisions as they felt that children might find it disturbing. A rare outbreak of common sense there.

be careful of that Barney chap, he only wants to hug you so he can get you within reach of his teensy Tyrano-arms, and eat you alive.
