Post-Interaction Idealistic Rumination

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."
"That's quite a mouthful."
"Indeed."

or:

"I just agreed to go to church every Sunday morning with my neighbor. What the shit was I thinking?! I should have told him I'm busy literally every Sunday morning! #Fuckmylife."
