Toilet Epiphany

When you're sitting on the toilet and have an "ah-ha!" moment.

I was sitting on the crapper after a long meeting at work, when out came an idea. I truly had a "Toilet Epiphany".

auto-epiphellatio

When you blow your own mind.

I performed auto-epiphellatio when I figured out I could make grilled cheese by turning the toaster sideways.

When I came up with the word epiphellatio today, I had an auto-epiphellatio.

House-like epiphany

A realization made when someone else is talking to you. The moment when you finally figure something out because another person is talking or doing something that brings about the answer. Commonly featured on House, M.D., and named after Dr. Gregory House (played by Hugh Laurie).

Brandon had a House-like epiphany by watching someone else play the saxophone. He told me, "I want to play like that!"

The act of having a moment of revelation, inspiration, and insight. A sudden, intuitive perception of or insight into the reality or essential meaning of something, usually initiated by some simple, homely, or commonplace occurrence or experience.

I had to spend some time alone and epiphanate before I could write a new song.
