The current word used by physicists to describe motion faster than light is "Superluminal". With CERN's recent discovery of particles that travel faster than light, it is now more important than ever that physicists worldwide instead use the term "Ludicrous Speed" to describe faster than light motion, especially if the matter goes to plaid.

Spaceballs! Honestly why arent we doing this? If we are breaking the laws of physics we might as well make it funny.
