über (meaning really) metric (meaning cool). Originated by two study groups of River School that were about to go on the radio. They decided to create interesting words that would either give the impression to the general audience that they were extraordinarily smart or just a few dumb fucks. Now, nation wide, people are using über metric whenever they go in front of a public audience (ie. school intercom, radio, telivision, MC of a concert)
