Quantus theory 

The concept that it's much better to emigrate to Australia than live in a tired and rather shabby looking United Kingdom. The theory sounds great, but is complicated by the Drongo Uncertainty Principle, in which you either live in Australia but realise it's not as great as you thought it would be (which usually occurs when the deadly finger-web spider bites you on the funnel) OR you're in the UK, it's cold, wet, and dismal, and you've just been mugged for your mobile phone, and so you dream of an idyllic life in the sun playing with large friendly marsupials (known as 'Ozzies').
In the UK:
Gerald: 'That damned Johnny in the hooded top just beat me up and took my phone!'
Edward: 'Ahhhh! Playing with the Ozzies in the balmy climes of Australia would be so much better!'
Gerald: Hmmmm! Quantus theory!'
-------------------------------------
Simultaneously in Australia:
Tadger: 'Bollocks mate! I just got bit on the funnel by a finger-web spider!'
Johnno: 'No wucking furries mate, we'll move to England.'
Tadger: 'Rack off! That's just Quantus theory!'

Quantoretta

What is now incorrectly termed "dark matter" is actually a three-dimensional field of particles called quantoretta (plural). Each individual particle is called a quantoretto, the smallest unit of Universal matter, which is electromagnetic (among other unknown, yet-to-be-determined forces) in nature.

Quantoretta are the entities that allow communication across the Universe to be orders of magnitude faster than the speed of light.

Coined in 2001 by William Dean A. Garner in an unpublished novel.
Quantoretta can be harnessed to "see" trillions of light years into the Universe, and allow space travel from Earth.
