Re: A pitch for my own - and what a Pitch! (Ha Ha Ha)
in reply to a message by Barbra
Still not into it, sorry.
However, I don't make an association between Barbara and Barbarian, really. The emphasis is totally different. Dropping the middle A, to me, takes it from being "regular lady name" to "They're coming to get you, Barbra!"
"than you will go to jail for kidnap."

Hysterical & Apropos - and probably deserved
This is funny and so apropos! They came to get me alright! I've never seen this movie, but know it's name quite well. He who threatens her is the one they come to get. No Barbra could be stranger than a Barbra that's a male.
Barbra is not an easy name to like. My only saving grace in terms of names is to be an Ugly Betty or a Penelope, the Christina Ricci Character.
I always laugh when ladies complain "I just got ma'am'ed".
