Barney: Yes! Look at us, hanging out again. This is amazing. This is awesome! This is... [screams]

Quote from Barney in The Time Travelers
20-Years-From-Now-Barney: Hey, Ted. What's this I hear-slash-remember about you not wanting to see Robots vs. Wrestlers?
Ted: Yeah, it's just that I don't want to see it.
20-Years-From-Now-Barney: You don't...
Barney: I know.
20-Years-From-Now-Barney: He doesn't...

Quote from Barney in Who Wants To Be A Godparent
Lily: So now we don't have a guardian.
Ted: You know, as your best friend, if called upon, I'd be honored to raise Marvin.
Robin: If you want him to be raised by his underwear on a flagpole, Ted's your guy. If you want him pulling the chord on some other nerd's panties, I'm your guy.
Barney: I'll teach that kid how to be awesome in ways you and Lily never could. It's going to be legend... wait for it - no, I won't wait for it and neither should little baby Marvin, so maybe it's better if you two just die right now - ...dary.
Quote from Barney in Blitzgiving
Ted: Wait. Blitz was there, too?
The Blitz: The Gentleman! The Gentleman! Oh, I was there for the whole thing. Something inside me just said "Grand Theft Auto" can wait a night.
Barney: It was legen - wait for Ted to leave, 'cause he's now The Blitz - dary. Legendary!
Quote from Barney in Natural History
Curtis: Well, aren't you two clever. Well, guess what, this museum has seen every kind of prank you can think of. Mummies playing poker, penguins sticking out of volcanoes, dinosaurs from the Cretaceous period hanging out with dinosaurs from the Jurassic period. One time a kid knocked down the blue whale. You name it...
Robin: I'm sorry. Did you say someone knocked down the blue whale?
Curtis: Oh no, not just someone. A six-year-old. Oh, yeah, that story is legend... [phone beeps] Hold on. ...dary.
Quote from Barney in Architect of Destruction
Ted: Barney, we have to talk.
Barney: Sure. What's up?
Trish: Excuse me, Mr. Stinson.
Barney: Not now, Trish!
Trish: But there's an urgent memo for Mr. Mosby.
Ted: "Dary."
Barney: Legendary!
Quote from Barney in Doppelgangers
Marshall: Hi. Hey. Hi. Sorry, you don't know me, but I just wanted to say thank you. You're actually a very important person in my life.
Barney: Important? More like legendary. Marshall, it's me, Barney.
Quote from Barney in The Rough Patch
Ted: Look, there's no reason we should take this seriously, right?
Lily: Of course not. This is an old tape. Barney is happy with Robin.
Future Ted: [v.o.] But over the next couple of weeks, I started to notice things. Barney and Robin stopped having crazy adventures.
[at MacLaren's, where Barney is eating bar nuts throughout the conversation:]
Lily: So, what'd you guys do last night?
Robin: I wanted to go to a concert. He wanted to go to a party. Obviously, we couldn't do what just one of us wanted, so we just stayed in, watched a movie on cable.
Barney: It was Legen... Wait for it. ...ds of the Fall. Legends of the Fall! It was okay.
