It is the feeling you get when after something has happened you think of all the things you could have said.
It originates from the french phrase 'L'esprit d'escalier' litterally translated as 'Wit on the stairs' meaning the feeling you get when you fall down the stairs you think of all the witty things you could have said but didn't.

Getting a blowjob on a stairwell. Often this causes the shakes, especially when done outside your neighbors door. There is a certain covertness to this often when it is said.

When one gets super drunk, complains about their leather, and falls down the stairs demolishing an inanimate object.
Did you hear about Bobby last night? He was super drunk, came upstairs complaining about his leather, and the person who stole his couch spot. Next thing we knew he was stair diving downstairs. I feel bad for the shoe rack.
