thinking of the right answer too late; the perfect, usually piercing, riposte that you conceive only when replaying a verbal exchange later in your head
from the French l'esprit d'escalier, the witty repartee you thought of as you're going downstairs to leave
My coworker Ann had taken to calling me "Markus", which I hate. I told her I hated it, and her response was,"It's a term of affection."
The verb that is widely used to describe the actions during the song "Stairway to Heaven" by Led Zeppelin during BBYO (The B'nai B'rith Youth Organization) for Jewish teen's dances.
Stairwaying often refers to hooking up, making out, groping, kissing, and fondling during the time in which the song is played. Stairwaying is very fun!
Yael: I saw you stairwaying with Adam! It was getting steamy!
Rachael: Stairway to Heaven is now my favorite song because you get to stairway when it comes on! BBYO dances are AWESOME!
