In 2011, I wrote a post about my problems with the characterization of Barney Stinson on How I Met Your Mother.
Yesterday, this popped up in my inbox:
“You know what? Barney is awesome, and you should live with it. Neil Patrick Harris just got the job, that doesn`t mean that he`s actually like that. Suck It Bitch!”
Well. That seems like a reasonable response.
Edited to add: A response! This just appeared in my email:
“da hell if you odnt lik ehim why d you use his queues
legendary is his bitch”
Oh, my.
At this point, I would usually mark the poster as spam, but this is way too entertaining. Keep ’em coming, angry Barney Stinson fan!
Clearly you can only use a quotation from someone if you like them.
LOL. What’s funny is that I didn’t even say I hated the character, just that I had a problem with his development over the course of the series. I said nothing mean or critical about Neil Patrick Harris at all.
Haha, “suck it bitch”. Sounds like something one of my girl friends would say playfully, so I’ll never be able to take that “insult” seriously.
