See I think uber has done some good things for us.

When you translate uber to over you are missing the fact that languages have different ways of using words that translate the same. Eg. the danish word for over is often used (in slang) in the same way that uber is used in the proposed thread title: "The Uber Tool Thread".

So, let go of your annoyance, as (at least in some countries) it does make sense to use uber in sentences such as "it was uber cool" :cool:



ps. this post contains a carefully planned, well-hidden Tool-reference :eek:

Good try, dude. Maybe you shouldn't have made it the first sentence.

I wouldn't say first sentance is "well hidden", yeah.

Sure.

I've been playing a lot of Volta and SOAD because I just saw an unbelievable concert with both bands. Both bands were awesome in their own way.

Slippy & MJK:

I wasn't supposed to be hard :)

I wrote it in the first sentence with the following agenda:
By the time you read it, not knowing what I wrote in the last sentence, I figured there might be a chance that, subconsciously, your mind would connect the dots, so to speak, so that you would automatically hear the original sentence in your head - Thus making me a MIND CONTROLLER :evil: :lol:

[QUOTE=Kage]No, I don't care if it's nerdy. Most people just blatantly misuse the word because they don't know its actual German meaning. It started with people saying, for example, "(insert something here) uber all" which is fine, but then they started saying, "(instert something here) is uber cool," which is not fine. It translates to "(instert something here) is over cool."

It just really irks me for some reason, and it's a pet peeve. It's an ignorance that caught on and people hopped on the bandwagon, and that really angers me.[/QUOTE]

Saying something is uber cool, is actually sort of proper usage (the mixing of two languages aside).. "Das ist uber toll!" <- German phrase.. "That's overly great".. Just because it doesn't make sense directly translated doesn't mean it doesn't make sense at all.

I've never heard it used by any German people, but whatever. And I know that just because something doesn't directly translate doesn't mean it doesn't work. The point is that it bugs me because most people using it don't know what they're actually saying. Several people I've talked to thought it meant "super," which is really annoying. And, aside from that, like you said, the mixing of the two languages is lame.

Hehe.. I would say I agree if it wasn't for the fact that a big part of my everyday language uses english words....

You're forgetting the fact that virtually every language is a ripoff of a previous language. This is like saying that mixing genres is lame. Learning another language would be a lot harder to master if it weren't for the mixed concepts, like conjugated verbs, similiar uses of definite and indefinite articles, and etcetera.

Oh man. I was liking just "Tool".
Doesn't using this "Rock and Metal's..." thing cancel out the whole reason the mods got rid of ***Official*** threads?

True. English is quite inspired from German.

Dried Muffins... You saw that show man? Tell me how that was! I have tickets in chicago the 30th... best seats in the house.

Hey, I heard something that TOOL might break up after their new album comes out. Anyone know if that's true? I pray to God it aint

Its not.

i never heard uber using in germany or austria too. the only word people are using in vienna (its a sort of dialect/slang - and only (!) in vienna) they say 'UR'-something.
f.e.: Ur-cool, UR-geil, Ur-leiwand, Ur-lässsig, du bist Ur-lieb, etc.
geil, leiwand, lässig you can translate to 'cool' or something like that.

in this words /greetings from vienna :wave:

[QUOTE=deathmetal]Hey, I heard something that TOOL [b][u]might[/u][/b] break up after their new album comes out. Anyone know if that's true? I pray to God it aint[/QUOTE]

Yeah.. They might break up.. They might throw off their skin and reveal they're demons from the dimension of calcuta, here to save us all from the giant chihuahua in the sky... But I'd say both scenarios are about just as probable

Anyone care to post a link to adam's myspace page.

Edit:No matter.I found it.

[QUOTE=Knifeboy]Hehe.. I would say I agree if it wasn't for the fact that a big part of my everyday language uses english words....[/QUOTE]

That's true, tons of languages use English words, because they hear it on TV. Especially 'Cool', 'Oh my God' (I hate that. :angry: ), every swear word. Etc.

Actually, that's not how I mix in english words.. I usually end up using 6 syllable words from the english language because I don't know them in danish :upset:.. My thoughts are in half-english/half-danish, wich makes it harder to use both languages properly.. I blame the internet
