Moment

You know... There was this one time... Where... She was returning from checking the mail... And... When she got to the patio she parroted one of the things he used to say and she kind of playfully hopped up onto the step and turned back and looked at him... Waiting for him to follow... And it was just so beautiful... The image has faded a bit but... I don't think I'll ever forget that moment... But... Just in case I do... I'll just leave it here...
Iam "Did I do this one already? I can't recall.... Either way... It was a beautiful moment and I'll never forget the way she made me feel... I don't even have a word to describe it... I guess, that's why I'm using several..."

This phrase is mostly commonly found at the end of every broadcast of "The Daily Show", with Jon Stewart saying the tag line after the last commercial break, and throwing up a short video clip before the end credits.

A moment of Zen is something which inspires in the same reaction as does contemplating Zen koans does.

In Zen practice, deliberately irrational statements are sometimes used in Zen to jar persons into realizing the limits of the common uses of the intellect. One well-known example is, “What is the sound of one hand clapping?”.

Either of these instances can be applied to Jon's "moment of Zen", which often depicts political figures making fools of themselves, or satirizing the American public in general, so the epiphany can come from the realization of the satire, or the realization of how some people are just really, really stupid.
"Here it is folks, your moment of Zen!"

Just before a male ejaculates, there are premonitory sensations marking a point of no return—when ejaculation becomes inevitable. Some therapists call this the “moment of inevitability.” Once that threshold has passed, it is too late to delay ejaculation; it then occurs beyond the man’s control.
Masturbation helps men learn to recognize the "moment of inevitability" just before orgasm and helps teach them how to avoid premature ejaculation.
