I've suggested it makes sense if you have multiple-personality disorder ;-)

It's worthwhile reading the thread to get some perspective here. 

Here's a few options we've been throwing around:
 - the scriptObject - a bit clunky but quite descriptive and works anywhere
 - this behavior - also quite descriptive but only works inside a behavior obviously (perhaps returning the same as me outside a behavior???)
 - the behavior - possibly confusing when the behavior of me might return something else
 - this script - doesn't really make sense because what we want is an object reference
 - this me - was originally a joke but was implemented for the sake of implementing something and to see if somebody came up with something better

I don't think I've missed any. My favorites are still the scriptObject or this behavior. Mark Waddingham picked this me for the sake of implementing something.

So... if you don't like it then come up with something better ;-)

Cheers
