"My physics professor speculates that ghosts exist in quantum dissipation mode most of the time. However, he says that if their quarklets manage to get entangled again, they then become visible to us. It must be really cool to be a Prof and think crazy thoughts, but get paid for it."

If you can imagine a much smaller and younger sister or brother with whom you share DNA but not much else in common, they could be thought of as being a 'quarklet.' Similarly, in the world of atoms, you have protons and neutrons and the things they are made of which are called quarks (i.e. the big brothers or sisters of quarklets) and quarklets (the smaller, irritating, buzzing around everywhere baby quarks). So think of a quarklet as being a baby quark. They will be discovered sometime and their definition will have been first posted on the UD.
"If I were a physicist I would want to be the discoverer of quarklets, because they will turn out to be the building blocks of the universe, mark my words!"

Second bestness is when you know you are not the first choice if somebody asks you to be someone (wife, husband, girlfriend, boyfriend) or to do something (i.e. become the boss). You know that someone else was first choice and altough you accept the offer, it rankles and stays wth you forever, turning you into a bitter, overbearing person.
"I think Mum's feeling of second bestness is why she's always so horrible to me - knows Dad wanted to or should have married someone else."

"Quantizement" (or quantisement with UK spelling) is the process which happens when one person's (or entity) thoughts are immediately known to another person (or entity), but without any form of written, verbal or other means of physical communication being used. The process is so rapid, happening with a zeptosecond (which is one trillionth of a billionth of a second), that it seems as if the generation and receiving of the thoughts between the two separate consiousnesses are simultaneous.
This girl, standing in front of him, here on the terrace, hadn’t spoken. Yet, he knew exactly what she was thinking. Her thoughts were flickering in his consciousness exactly as they were forming in her brain. And that kind of temporal connection and quantizement shouldn’t be possible, unless it was happening in close to Planck time, or at least in zeptoseconds.

A person (usually an adult) who is so terribly overweight and cumbersome that you just know the mattress wont be able to take the strain and that the bed will audibly crack and then sag like a broken matchstick when the overweight person gets onto it - usually by throwing themselves backwards onto the bed.

A perhapponism is a fear of something that may happen in the future, but which is magnified out of all proportion so that it dominates all your thinking.
I keep on having a perhapponism that if I do go on a walking safari in Africa it will be my last. I know it's irrational to think this because the safari guides have all got rifles and there aren't any really dangerous animals where we would be going anyway.

Being ultra sleepy is when you are utterly knackered because you woke up at 4 a.m.for some reason and just couldn't get back to sleep, so the day becomes a sort of blur, with you ending up being ultra sleepy and also a bit fearful that you still won't be able to get to sleep easily when it's time for bed.
"My friend Sarah, here at school, is having an ultra sleepy day - just couldn't get her overclocking brain to switch off when she found herself wide awoke for some reason at 4 a.m. So she's more than a bit knackered now, poor girl."
