Uberly

According to Urban Dictionary, Uber is:

• The ultimate, above all, the best, top, something that nothing is better than.

“I’m Über confused…”

More importantly, Urban Dictionary says that Uberly is:

• To the extreme

And thus, this blog was born.  Our goal is to highlight the most Uber things in the known and unknown universe.  Simple.  It it’s “to the extreme”, we want to post about it here.

Uber Ergonomics

We, as humans, can take many things to the extreme.  Here is something that is close to my heart: Uber Ergonomics.  Oh, to be able to lay in bed or in a comfortable leather recliner, feeling no pain in back or neck as I strain to put together blog post after blog post.  I consider myself an extreme blogger (in content volume, not necessarily quality) as I contribute to over 30 blogs regularly.  This piece of uber comfort would work wonders on my strained spine.

Dressing Uberly

It could be as simple as people dressing uberly with bizarre styles, activist messages, or even attire that is worn out of need.  Judging by the image here, I doubt that there is any need being met by this particular piece of clothing.

In the way that we express our fashions, we often give the world an insight into our eccentric natures.  Some people dress, pierce, or tattoo themselves in ways that are confusing to some (to say the least) but represent what it is within us that we want the world to know.

Uber Storms

It isn’t always about us.  Sometimes we forget that the world has extreme elements about it that are beyond our control.  The weather, for example, can dominate our actions and change people’s lives.

Whether it’s uber storms or uber droughts, uber heat or uber cold, we are forced to adjust on a daily basis.  Sometimes, our very existence is controlled by what is happening outside in the world.

Even animals, plants, and other aspects of God’s creation can be completely unpredictable, strange and mysterious.  If you think that a duck-billed platipus is weird, you’re only scratching the surface of uberly odd creatures.  This video that was sent to me just today shows (in a language I do not understand) just how amazing animals can be:

Bolt Wins Gold

Still, in the end, it is the people upon which we want to focus.  The uber folks of the worlds — those who excite us, terrify us, or inspire us — they are the ones this blog is about.  It takes uber dedication to achieve some goals.  Even the most gifted are often driven by a force that compels them beyond what most would consider normal and into a state that few can achieve.  It is these people, the ones who do things uberly, that this blog is most intended to highlight.

Enjoy!
