esprit d'escalier (e-SPREE des-kal-i-YE) noun, also esprit de l'escalier
Thinking of a witty remark too late; hindsight wit or afterwit.
Also such a remark.
[From French esprit de l'escalier, from esprit (wit) + escalier (stairs).]
How many times has this happened to me? No telling, but at least now I have a way to describe it.
