l'esprit d'escalier

[serinde]

This morning, I got up at stupid o'clock so as to take the train in with sweh. I spent most of the journey futzing around with my necklace and hair, as I didn't have myself all together by the time I stumbled out the door. It would seem I missed a deliberately-loud conversation between two putatively upstanding members of the community anent sweh's collar (a simple black leather affair which is in good part hidden by his shirt anyways), in which the words "fucking pervert" prominently figured.

I am greatly wroth with the fact that I missed this, because there are so many perfect lines to use. ... Though undoubtedly the mature thing to do would involve not rising to the bait. Ergo, I throw open my crisis of conscience to the hordes of Livejournal.

They were big chunky guys with very short cut hair and looked like bad news. One black, one white.

I just ignored them and smiled to myself.

Well, you have reasons to smile. For starters:
1) you know more than them; and
2) you've got something they don't have. nyah nyah!
