Someone who takes credit for the work of others because they are incompetent. Often fidgeting with their face during conversations, a Vern Barnett is completely oblivious to how disgusting they appear to those around them.
That Vern Barnett really came off as an asshole when they took credit for Steve's work, picking at his face during the entire meeting made him look like a joke.
Auto Erotic Barneyfication is a sexual gratification term that arose out of the underground sex party scene in Berlin, Germany in the late 1990s. It involves (generally) men who like to dress up as Barney the purple Dinosaur & engage in sexual intercourse or other related acts with one or more partners while growling like a T-Rex.
I met this guy at the Halloween Party dressed as Barney the Dinosaur & thought it was a cute costume .. until I walked into the unlocked bathroom & he had both my cousins on their knees in front of him performing BJs. It transpires this dude is a practitioner of Auto Erotic Barneyfication
