This is a copy and past from B5tv.com where I first shared the story. Thought I would share it with my friends here as well:
My roommate and I were quietly watching our B5 S5 dvd's, when one of those amazing fantastic moments (which are extremely numerous in B5) came along that just sends a rush of emotion and adrenaline coursing through you, giving you goosebumps and forcing you to say something like "Yeah!" or simply an astonished "Wow."
Anyway, one such moment occurred, I believe it was Sheridan's blow-up to the council telling them that if they want war, then war it is.
Afterward, I simply and jokingly pretended to spasm and made the appropriate noise, both simulating a sudden orgasm.
My roommate looked at me as if to say..."What was that?"
Seeing this query lodged in his expression, I simply replied:
"Oh...sorry...Babylonigasm."
To which we both suddenly burst into laughter.
This I share with you all...my new term..now used frequently around my house:
"Babylonigasm: The reaction one has upon experiencing a sudden and near orgasm while watching Babylon 5...especially during such moments as G'Kar's speeches...Delenne's arrival at the last moment to save the station...Ivanova's 'God sent me' monologue, and the ultimate cause of the most lasting and sustained Babylonigasm the entire episode, Sleeping in Light, and so on. Warning: Babylonigasms can occur spontaneously and without warning, even after viewing all five seasons repeatedly."
Of course you can have Babylonigasms while watching other shows and films, but since B5 brought on the most in number and most sustained reactions of this nature, it's the one that gets the crown of having it named for it. Not to mention I coined the term whilst having one during B5.
Enjoy!
