“Barr is not only a nut and an idiot but he’s embarrassing himself.”
If you will permit me, I beg to differ. I know what you are trying to say, but I think that in THIS case, Barr is so enamored of his own supposed intelligence that he cannot be embarassed. Did you ever know someone who was SO stupid that no matter what you said to them you could not insult them? That’s Barr. He’s a legend in his own mind!
I agree with you and acknowledged it in #40. You said it better in saying he’s a legend in his own mind.
