Barry

Yeah, you'd be hard pressed to find a young Barry I reckon. They're a dying breed.


This poll is so important I think I just grew a uterus so I can have it's babies.

Has anyone else ever heard of or used the term "having a barry"? Used to say it all the time at uni. Comes from Barry Crocker rhyming with shocker.

Is Barry short for something?

That Dame Edna Parkinson interview is great. MAC did a collection of makeup with Dame Edna a while ago, the packages were all lavender with her sparkley glasses on them and the colours were things like "Gladiola". I regret not buying any.

Actually, wait, one of my Dad's friend's name is Barry! Oh and God, I just remembered I had an uncle Barry. He died a couple of years ago, sadly.

I only know one Barry and he's older. I had heard it's a common name in Oz.

Can't be that common a name, I mean look at the poll. Look at the poll!

It used to be more popular. People don't name their babies Barry much any more.
