The clockwise or counterclockwise circular movement created by the contour of one's body when attempting to find a comfortable and successful sleep position. The individual may first try the "on the side" approach, but once that doesn't work, he/she may attempt to move to the "on the stomach" approach, followed by the "other side", and then finally "the back". Once the full circle fails, he/she then tries to repeat the entire process again, resulting in the form of a barrel roll.
Due to Paul's insomnia, he had a bad case of the barrel rolls for hours and then finally ended up just rubbing one out.

Derived from Star Fox's 'Barrel Roll', the phrase is used to interrupt a person from saying something uninteresting or out of the conversation.
Person 1: That was a hell of a ride
Person 2: I mean it's a new 370z customized, you've gotta expect something worth while...
Person 3: What kind of an engine does it use? I mean I personally think with 4000 cc...
Person 1: Barrel roll.
Example 2
In a blog contest
Person 1: so I just wanted to say, screw those bastards and live your life as you want it to be.
(applauses)
Person 2: Today, I received the mail from my parents that Sylvie died. A drop of tear fell from my watery eyes as I reminisced about the last time I saw her. She was old. Older than I, in a dog's age....
Audience 1: barrel roll.

1. A barrel roll is an aerial maneuver in which an airplane makes a complete rotation on both its longitudinal axis and its lateral axis, causing it to follow a helical path, approximately maintaining its original direction

Basic areobatic maneuver, used to shake an enemy from your tail. You corkscrew in the sky and lose airspeed, and your enemy flies right by you.
To perform a barrel roll, bank sharply left or right, and gently pull back on the stick to maintain the roll. Hold sideways pressure on the stick as you roll inverted, then center it when you return to level flight.
During this move, the stick is essentially in the Left or right rear corner of the cockpit. The nose will draw a circle on the horlizon, instaed of rotating on a point. If you do a barrel roll perfectly, you won't lose any altitude

These people who say to perform a barrel roll by pushing buttons don't know how to fly worth shit and I would own them in any aerial combat game.
