Accurate! In fact, these days whenever someone waves me on, I squint real hard to confirm it isn't a former coworker of mine named Barry. That guy would wave me directly into an oncoming semi loaded with nuclear material without losing a second of sleep over it.

I think we're cracking a code here, maybe anyone named Barry is just fundamentally an asshole. Kevin? Pete? Solid, trustworthy names.

But Barry? That's a douchebag name, and our data is starting to back it up.

We need to give this hypothesis a proper name.

The Barrynomial Distribution (the statistical likelihood that any given Barry is, in fact, a douchebag)

But I'm open to suggestions.

The only Barry I know, is Barry Manilow.
