Default Petition to ban the word "Uber"

Come now, we all know that in a years time, nobody but the Germans (it IS German, isn't it?) will be saying, "uber" this and "uber" that.

Let's all just stop cold turkey before it gets uber hackneyed. :snooze:

You do realise that online petitions are almost always totally fucking useless, right? If you think your complaint will garner aknowledgement (let alone accomadation) from the world at large, then you are hopelessly optimistic.

Well I happen to think über is an awesome fucking word. In fact, I would like to file a petition with the forum administration that would require that all user use über in every post or face bannination.
