Uber
Term with literal meaning of "above" in German. Brought to the mainstream in the early 80's by hardcore American punk band, the Dead Kennedys when using the term in the anti-Californian government song "California Uber Alles", which is a take off the German motto of "Deustchland Uber Alles", which translates to "Germany above all." The term was picked up in their native California stomping grounds by the typical surfers and "punks" and extended from there to many teenagers, the majority of which use the term online.
Example:
That was uber-lame.

uberitis
Uberitis is a social disease that affects some of the stronger players in any Internet based massively multi-player game when the "uber" players begin to feel a sense of entitlement because of their high standing relative to their peers. This inflammation of the ego eventually leads to arrogance, elitism, and many other forms of socially destructive behavior.

Uber
A taxi sort of company that makes it possible for everyday people to earn money in their own cars. How this company works is that they hire people who pass background screening etc. Then said people (drivers) use their phones to sign in to the Uber site. When customers are in need of a quick ride somewhere, they can visit this site and see which Uber drivers are nearest them. Uber drivers use this as a way to either earn extra money in their spare time or as a full-time job and their only income.

Jane was in a rush and had no time to wait for the bus, so she checked the Uber website and found a fast ride!!
