Über?

I know that most of you probably DO NOT know what Über means, so lets clear it.

Über means beyond / over. Its a german word, and its just one of those things I guess got adapted to the gaming community, but why say it? When you add it to a sentence it makes it sound weird, and senseless...

Its like saying... bumsen weg, gesendheit.

I just said, ---- off, bless you.... its weird... to explain but.. why say it?

Any comments?

 

wow, i am a fluent german. and yes, u did get it right. but its not the way germans would say that. to say ---- off in german it would be: verpiss (fair-piss) dich (dihh*)


*the hh is pronoused like a growl at the front of your throat.

 

i say uber all the time. my only reason is because it rhymes with goober.

 

It's just as cool as saying:

That is beyond wicked!

But I think it came from the CS losers.

 

Uber is just a great word to use ^_^, this thread is cool

 

I never used this word and prolly never will lol
Yay I uber pwn n00bs =P

 

it prolly came from myg0t

 

Computer slang is for losers.

 

OMFGZ THAT'S SO UBERR!! YOU ARE TEH ROXORZ!!!!11111

^Don't you just love Counter-Strike?

:lol:

 

i know you hack

 

yeah well, I guess I should start posting on these forums...would do me some good to get to know you guys since I'm gettin decent at photoshop.....

Uber is funny but I do think it came from CS ppl

 

There really is now point, people just like to say it cuz they think it's "cool" in their mind.....

 

"U R s0 Üb3rl33t", that's not really something to say on a forum like this.
Perhaps it is in games like CS, i don't know (don't play it often).

 

ya and people always use 1337 or leet etc. in place of elite...although, i believe 1337 is code talk and it some how got thrown in the gaming vocabulary

 

never in my life have I used uber. The only times I use l337 are when I'm describing something sarcastically/funny. Like..check out my l337 sig.
