Ahem...we will now return you to your regularly scheduled über interesting chat about the word über.
[img]graemlins/crying.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/crying.gif[/img] Reading this thread über and über again I cannot shake the eery suspicion that "some" of you don't take my very legitimate grievance über the überly unqualified and incorrect überuse of the word über/ueber/uber in English, überlanguage of the überly free world, überly serious! Übermeanies, you (über-)all (this one is for you, Melusinchen )!

Now, if you would excuse me, please, I have some more crying to do - which is überdue after the übercruel treatment I have suffered here from your hands!
