Dear Sir: I believe you meant, "Step up to the mic", which is short for microphone. "Mike" is not used appropriately in this instance. Sincerely, Anonymous Internet Grammar Vigilance Committee (TMP Chapter)

I believe you meant, "Step up to the mic", which is short for microphone. "Mike" is not used appropriately in this instance. Well if you are going to quote the topic then please be correct, it was in fact "mike" not "Mike" as you stated. ;)

Ah, but it appeared at the beginning of a sentence, so it was required to be capitalized! Hah hah!

You Anglo-Saxons are doomed, of course, and your precious language will rot in Heil. Now, go listen to an Italian order her food and really enjoy the most beautiful language in the world. Nuff said.
