Barney Quote #845

Quote from Barney in The Possimpible

Barney: So, what does being a reporter mean to you?
Robin: Well, ever since I was a little kid, I always...
Barney: Cut! Robin, you're getting bogged down in specifics. I need you to just say vague, confident-sounding buzzwords, like "synergy" and "dynamism." You can make up a word, like... "linkativity."
Robin: How will sounding like an idiot get me hired anywhere?
Barney: Okay, fine. Don't do it. Anyway, I'm sure there are plenty of exciting stories to cover back in Canada. I just read that the mayor of Winnipeg's nephew went ice fishing and caught himself a 16-pound walleye. Reporting live from the worst place in the world, I'm Robin Scherbatsky.
