Bill: Yea, I opened my car window and forgot that my application was sitting on the seat, and it blew right out the window.

Dan: What I always do is before opening my window is look around and see if there is anything that can blow out.

Bill: (Thinking) What a hindsighter you are.

Jackie: Boy, that was a rough year. I am so glad we are in to 2021 and that whole COVID-19 mess is behind us. Donny was getting wound up about how COVIDgilent I was being.

Jill: Yup, 2020 is hindsight. On the upside, you guys did deliver a beautiful COVID boomer in December.

2020 will be hindsight 

What people are saying to help calm down to help ensure that we learn from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Eric: Man, this COVID-19 is really a mess.

Sean: Ya, we better learn from this. Hopefully, we'll make some changes and 2020 will be hindsight. We are just wrapping up no pants month so just 8 more months till we can say "2020 is hindsight".

Hindsight is 20/20 

Phrase used to describe the fact that it is easy for one to be knowledgable about an event after it has happened.

IE: An individual has a realization about the event that should have been obvious all along, yet they didn't catch on because they were acting in the heat of the moment.

Also allows one to learn from their mistakes.

After looking back on the situation, Jim realized that quitting his job was a foolish act.

Jim: "Dad, why did you let me quit my job without interceding?"

Dad: "Hindsight is 20/20, son, learn from your mistakes."

Intuitive Hindsight

Claiming to have known something was going to happen, when in actuality you were genuinly suprised. Often this is done simply to save face.

"Hey mom! I just went skydiving!"

*after being visibly suprised* "Oh. Somehow I knew you'd do something crazy like that."

"Nice try, mom. I can tell Intuitive Hindsight when I see it."

Captain Hindsight 

A stupid ass superhero from the South Park episode Coon 2: Hindsight. He flies around the world providing hindsight after every catastrophy that happens, but doesn't actually do anything helpful. Instead of helping the fire department save lives, he just started bitching about how it could have been avoided. Not to mention how "useful" he was during the gulf oil spill

Rndm Citizen: Look!! It's Captain Hindsight!!! Captain Hindsight: That building shouldn't have been built there. It prevents fire trucks from getting closer to that other building. My job here is done. Captain Hindsight away!!! Everyone: Thank you Captain Hindsight!!!!!!
