Gravel Moments

Gravel - A moment when someone says/does something that places someone else in a state of confusion that their minds lack any means to rationalize and recover their composure.

This phrase comes from my great Chinese History professor Padilla. Great man. He also referred to the moment as "a Scooby-Doo "Barooh?" moment". I originally heard the phrase when Padilla explained a series of historical events and asked a question, yet the class was entirely dumbfounded.
