Retort Tardiness

A common syndrome wherein the speaker often remembers something clever to say about 10 minutes after the conversation has ended
"The boy said 'you git' to the bully, but due to his retort tardiness, later reflected it would have been more accurate to have said 'you misproportioned cankerous cretacean'"
