The process of ruminating on what one should have done or said in an interaction that just transpired or transpired earlier. During PIIR the individual typically undergoes feelings of self-abuse, anger, and/or embarrassment.
"Dude, I could have earned way more brownie points with Paige had I just tried to be more flirty. Now she probably thinks I'm a wank or thinks I’m not interested in her. Wait. Shit, SHIT! I gotta snap out of this PIIR."
"You're not a wank. And what's PIIR?"
"Post-Interaction Idealistic Rumination."
