Pronunciation: DUH-pif-anee

Sentence: Rodger had worked on his presentation for weeks. Everything hinged on his ability to explain his radical new concept to the executive committee. The fact that he was in a room full of knodding heads didn't prepare Rodger for the duhpiphany moment that was heading towards him at break-neck speed. One properly-placed stupid question was about to send him back to square one.

Etymology: Duh: (as in DUH!) combined with epiphany: (a moment of sudden revelation or insight)
