Transcript of speech from August 22, 2011:
"Good morning, Barrytown residents! As you may know, Barriertown, while usually keeping their annual obstructive garbage to themselves, have in recent years started causing trouble in our territory. Five years ago, it was an excusable (albeit still obnoxious) smattering of debris. Three years ago, it was a questionable telephone hijack targeted towards one of our citizens. And this year, the straw that broke the camel's back, a Barrierer cut all of our trees, every last one of them, all for a quickly-rotting pile in Barriertown's center. Today, we have finally made Simon Barry pay for these transgressions against us, and we've finally come to an agreement. Any Barriertown resident that dares to ever enter this town again will get fined five thousand dollars. In exchange, we Barrytown folk will too get fined the same amount for entering Barriertown, though I'm sure none of you had any plans to go visit that wretched horror. Starting today, we're forever safe from the Barriering."


On the very next Barriering in 2012, Barrytown and Barriertown residents woke up to find that their homes had been transported to the other town.

The original idea for this was not actually the Barriering, but about two brothers who share the last name Barry. One of them formed a town named Barrytown, and the other, after hearing about this, sets up a nearby town named Barriertown.

Barriertown, Maryland is a town in thr US with a population of ~150. Its residents have a yearly tradition known as "The Barriering" where they place random obstacles, whether physical or otherwise, in strategic places to annoy each other. Some interesting obstacles are enumerated here. In 1983, Harry Donalds stood knocking outside people's houses and engaged in "pointless conversation" with them. One citizen reported having a 45-minute long conversation where Harry described individual snowflakes he had seen last winter. In 1989, residents woke up to find sheep on their roofs. It is still unknown who executed this. In 1995, a child named Johnny Wilson brought a grand piano to a central location, and smashed the keys while screaming incoherently whenever someone was nearby. In 2004, one unknown resident covered the entire area of Barriertown with chairs. It took 5 days for all of them to be collected. The exact same chairs were used again in 2005, prompting people to begin destroying them. The chair parts were scattered around in 2006.
