Esprit d'escalier strikes again

I write an account of an accident causing part of my hair to go AWOL, and only several hours later does it occur to me that I should have found an excuse to use the phrase ‘I need that like I need a hole in my head’.

Clearly I need to stop and give careful consideration to the pun opportunities the next time I have an accident. If nothing else it might stop me getting quite so annoyed with it…

Esprit d'escalier, eh? So, your next accident will be a humorous tale involving a lightly greased staircase...

(OK, OK, I'm sorry, you can shout at me now)
