Tell other people you guys know. It might just work. Boycott is often the most effective form of passive protest, as it hits companies where it hurts the MOST.... Their pockets.
In an effort to save myself some typing I'll point out that <a href="http://www.snopes.com/politics/gasoline/nogas.asp">this</a> covers most of the flaws of the idea already. While reading it insert some random profanity and sex references then pretend I wrote it.
As a total side note, I refuse to get worried about gas hitting $3 a gallon when I see a line of sheep like morons standing in line bitching about gas price while AT THE SAME FUCKING TIME buying damn water at around $6 a gallon. Not even magical water, just the regular shit you can get out of a tap. This shit won't make your dick grow, it doesn't give you the winning lotto ticket, it's not like Ponce de Leon finally found the fountain of youth. It's just fucking water. H2O. And a plastic container. That's fucking it. Someone paying $6 a gallon for that shit has absolutely no right to say a god damned word of complaint about gas being half that price.
Not that I'm saying you're one of those think headed genetic throwbacks that conclusively prove the problem with America today is that we've made it too easy to live. The stupid people just aren't dying off like they used to. So instead of humanity evolving into something great we're spreading their defective ass subpar genes throughout the population and are on a slow but steady race to see how long it takes to de-evolve enough that a orangutan beats us all in IQ by becoming the next worlds chess match when in an exciting end game move he throws his dookie at the snimpering mass of protoplasma that used to be called 'human' thus forcing a concede. Although who knows, you might be. In which case I just gotta say YOU'RE PAYING TWICE AS MUCH FOR WATER AS FOR GAS YOU COCKSUCKING SON OF A BITCH!
So anyway, yeah, gas prices suck but haven't hit a point where I'm worried about it much less where I'll do anything about it.
