"Yes, and I've made my decision, you know, too"
―Barbara before choosing her bachelor
Bimbo screen

Barbara Bimbo (Barbie) is a girl from Airhead, California and of course she talked by sticking "like", "you know", "or sumpthin'" between the words. She is the daughter of Mama Bimbo, and mother of Barbara Jo and Bridget.

Background

She was a former member of the Eta Omicron Zeta sorority at Walnut Log Community College in 1986-87.

Her hobbies are computer programming, creating unusual milkshakes and tantalizing elderly men. Her turn-ons are industrial-grade blenders and RS-232 interfacing. Her turn-offs are international military conflicts and the aroma of rosin-core solder.

She was the bachelorette at The Dating Connection asking questions to Davie Blair, Raguka Singh Soong (Larry) and A. P. Wire.

Her image appears on a alumni composite in the Eta Omicron Theta sorority, and Larry Lovage comments on her being Barbara Jo's mother.

Questions

"If I was to go like out on a you know date with you and you was like you know all dressed up or sumpthin' and like the car busted and we had to walk for help and I like broke a you know heel like how would you fix it?"
―Barbara's first question (according to Biff Barf one of the best questions ever)
"Like if you was a you know insect and like I was a you know flower what kind of you know insect would you like be and like what kind of flower am I?"
―Second question

Mistakenly the host believed that she chose Larry, while actually she wanted number three. Even if she cried that there's no way to spend no month on a boat with that jerk, she did win a solid month cruising with him on the U.S.S. Love Tub exploring exotic ports of South Pacific, call courtesy of Wonder Cruise Lines. However her mother stole her tickets.

Behind the scenes

BarbieCloseup

Eve or Barbara?

She is based on beta tester Barbara Baser.

In Larry 2, after Larry has won the cruise and is leaving Los Angeles on the USS Love Tub, he is seen sitting on the rail dreaming of a woman (her closeup face is seen inside a thought bubble. This was perhaps intended to represent Larry thinking of Eve, his girlfriend who dumped him at the beginning of the game. That portrait appears again in Magna Cum Laude, but it is suggested it represents Barbara. This is strange, as Larry has all reasons to remember his former love as he leaves home, but has no reason to dream of a woman he knows that he will meet on that same boat.
