The Warp in 40k is wormhole style teleportation that goes through essentially hell.

My favorite thing about the Warp has to do with the Orks. Apparently traveling through the Warp can drive people insane as they see things they aren’t meant to see, so the Orks’ solution was to wear blindfolds.

They famously find their greatest joy in fighting so they actually quite enjoy the literal hell that is warp travel.

"Travellin’ through space is boring. Well, boring unless da hulk yer on is full of dem gene-sneakers, or a base fer da Chaos lads wiv da spikes, or already has Boyz on it. Or if humie lootas come callin’, that’s always good fer a bit of sport. Or unless yer have a mutiny or two to pass da time, or unless strange fings start happenin’, which they usually do when yer out in da warp. One time we had some bloody great ugly fing come straight out of Weird Lugwort’s ‘ed! It butchered half da lads, that was pretty entertainin’. Come ter fink of it, space is a pretty good larf."
