Millicent:  "Hmmm...I think I'll take the dare, Cousin Barnabas."

[CyrusL]

Barnabas and Millicent's "Living Ventrilloquist Doll" act was the hit of the 1795 family Christmas party,
Barnabas: "Now Millie will do a little song for us"
Millie: "THis is for Nathan, 'twas on the good ship Veeee Nus..."
 

[BuzzH]

B: Millicent, are you listening to me?
M: Actually no, I'm concentrating on that strange flying object.  I haven't seen one of those since I was in Gulfbreeze Florida last year.

Barnabas had a curse put upon him by Angelique so that he wasn't allowed to close his eyes- but keep them open like a deer in the headlights- for all eternity!

[D_Friedlander]

B: Millicent, stop being coy, and LOOK at me this instant! (whispers:  Nancy, whats the matter?)

M: Oh, Dear Cousin Barnabas, I'm just waiting for my sweet Nathan. (whispers: Dammit, that all hairspray has me stuck to this statue!)

[MagnusTrask]

BC: "Now, Millicent... I know you think you've just had an idea, but ideas are for grown-ups with brains, not skulls filled with packing peanuts!"

Millicent:    "I was sure I had an idea... it just wasn't about anything in particular!"

[Mysterious Benefactor]

[The Ghost of Sarah Collins]

Barnabas: No Millicent, that's not what I meant when I said you wash my back I'll wash yours.

[McTrooper]

Barnabas:  Even with you're ears covered by your hair, I can see right to the other side. 

[Lydia]

Millicent:  Barnabas, if you won't defend my honor, then I'm sure THE PEN will.
Barnabas:  Yes, Millicent.  Absolutely.  Without a doubt.  In fact, I was just going to suggest THE PEN myself.

[IluvBarnabas]

Barnabas: Now Millicent, you know you shouldn't be borrowing voodoo dolls from Angelique to get back at Ben just because he doesn't find you pretty...

[McTrooper]

Millicent:  Barnabas, if you won't defend my honor, then I'm sure THE PEN will.
Barnabas:  Yes, Millicent.  Absolutely.  Without a doubt.  In fact, I was just going to suggest THE PEN myself.

So Barnabas is the Sword?  Or is it a joke about inanimate objects doing stuff they can't?  Sorry to over analyze, but I think I'm missing something.

Lydia posted that caption about the time we were all celebrating the anniversary of the appearance of the filigree pen from the pre-Barnabas eps.  Guess it was more 'topical' at the time.
