Quote from Barney in Bagpipes
Barney: But if you insist, here's what I would say about the dishes, if I were Lily's husband. [fantasy scene of Barney returning home to Lily:] Lily: Barney, you're home! [kisses Barney] [present:] Marshall: Dude. Get to the point! Barney: All right. [fantasy:] Barney: [drinks] Thanks, doll. Ah! Lily: Sweetie, are you going to wash that? Barney: I'm glad you bring that up. No. And here's why. [Lily sits on Barney's lap] Lily, I know you don't like a dirty sink, but does that make it my job to keep it clean? I mean, if one day I look up at the living room ceiling and think, " Hey, I'd like a replica of the Sistine Chapel up there." Would it be your job to paint it? Lily: Well, no. Of course not. Barney: Exactly! So, baby, by the same logic, if you don't like looking at a sink full of dishes, shouldn't it be your job to clean them? Lily: Wow. Thanks for explaining that. I get so confused. Barney: That's because you're a woman. [both laugh] Lily: I don't even know why we're laughing! Barney: Of course you don't.
