    Fellow Prius drivers,

    I see that my name has been mentioned in many conversations and for the life of me, I can't remember when I was involved in any of the topics mentioned. It's pretty cool seeing my name all over this website as long as it is in a positive manner.

    This feature bothers me!

    I thought that usernames were unique on this site and now find that I am being quoted for things that I have never said or had anything to do with???

    Best reason for not getting rid of the "you" tag? I am sick, working a 12 hour shift, very unhappy and in pain today, and after those three posts, I f***ing cannot stop laughting.

    Dan, I was naive in my original request, I retract my request for the ban.

    I now see the yin and yang of it. It is deliciously balanced.

    May this thread live to enlighten us all.

    This thread is why I love the you tag. I agree with Matt - reading threads like these give me the best (albeit cheap) laughs on this board.

    I personally think we should keep it just so that every 3 months or so we can have 20+ post thread with people getting confused, becoming angry, then reading further and finding humor in the situation. Keeps me going, at least.

    If it keeps Danny going, that alone is reason to keep it.

    We all know he doesn't just do it for the points! (There's another thread that pops up every few months.)

    Obviously, since everyone uses the tag to make fun of me, I would like to see it banned.

    Now if it were used to make fun of [you], that would be a different matter.

    Thanks to [you], isn't is apparent why we need to keep this thread?

    [you] said it best with the original comment about the gas mileage of a typical compact car.

    It was only when [you] confessed to me, in a private email, "an everlasting, unquenchable desire, to sleep with a HUMMER H2 driver..." that I realized I'd been misled.

    I disabled the tag on my board at work, but then again, I deal with students :p

    Didn't want any fighting in the hallways :)

    Why not turn on the ]you[ tag the second Tuesday of every month. We could call it "let the children play day"
