Inspired by an Oct. 2020 meme of a woman named Barbara salty comments regarding someone's mistreatment of a fast food worker.

Barbara is not a girl. Barbara is a woman. A woman that has a lot to offer. On the outside, she looks completely different than she's on the inside. She can be so kind and sweet that she makes even the coldest hearts melt. She can be pure as the driven snow. But don't abuse her kind nature. With a snap, a sweet Barbara can become a Barbara that makes a chill run down your spine. Barbara can be dangerous, but if you don't do anything to her, she'll be the nicest person in your life. Even if you never know what to expect it's good to keep her by your side.
