Is it Negative Space - Wedgie, as in a wedgie from an object made out of negative space, or is it Negative - Space Wedgie, the inverse of a space wedgie?

"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanAm I the only one who thinks the name might need to be changed to something a little more trope-apropriate?

Discription: Just annother random threat IN SPACE! (I.E. Lost Technology, Space Whale)
How It is Used: Something has screwed with space and time, Intentional or unintentional and is causing problems.
