Neologism of the Day (...Month, Year or Lifetime)

 

The Dabbler will officially coin a new phrase (she hasn't ever done so before, and may not ever again , so this is really dabbling at its essence).

My neighbor came home yesterday with a new hybrid vehicle. I really want one. I mean, really, really want one. I realized, as he emerged from his fuel efficient automobile, that I have a condition best described as Prius Envy.

Please start using this term when characterizing a person who wishes to be green environmentally, but only achieves said color by coveting his neighbor's (or anybody else's) eco-friendly car.

(And when you use this term, please give the Dabbler credit for its creation.)
