My sister has one. We say that John has "Prius Envy."

Awesome.

One of my college roommates, a linguistics major, said people shouldn't be allowed to make up words unless they had earned a deriver's license.

Hybrids are the new Volvos.

helbonde's theory of Volvo drivers (a-he-he-hem)
Volvo drivers come in two types:
1) Those who drive a Volvo because it is safe and the rest of the world is out to get them. These are the people in the right lane of the highway driving 50 in a 65 zone whilst the rest of traffic is going 75.
2) Those who drive a Volvo because it is safe so F the rest of the cars on the road, when this driver is in an accident, they'll be okay. These are the drivers who drive too fast, weaving through traffic.

During yesterday's morning commute, I saw two erratic Prius drivers. One was all the way on the shoulder while stopped at a stoplight coming off the highway (all the other cars were in the lane). The other, well... he was driving down the shoulder.

Yes, I admit that I suffer from Hybris as well. But I've got Insight, so why not?
