epiphanot 

An idea that at first seems like an amazing insight (at least to the conceiver) but later turns out to be pointless, mundane, stupid, or incorrect, and often is the root cause of bad decisions. Mostly occurs under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

epiphanette 

When you have a staggering revelation that's doesn't really impact anyone but you. It's sorta like an epiphany - but much, much smaller. It is to an epiphany what a kitchenette is to a kitchen.
