I think dark matter and dark energy just might not be quite as mysterious as people make them out to be. Especially DM could be completely mundane. We already know one type of DM, namely neutrinos, but they can only provide a fraction of observed DM. All it takes is another particle like that, but a bit heavier. The strange thing about Dark Energy is not so much that it exists. It was to be expected because anything that provides energy in the vacuum such as the higgs field and virtual particles, contribute to it. The strange thing is why there is so little of it when naive estimates give you up to 120 orders if magnitude more.
