retrospectacles

The (usually rose-colored) glasses which one views the past. Viewing through retrospectacles causes one to overlook past problems or disasters and remember only the good aspects. Thus, retrospectacles are often the device which allows one to intentionally repeat the same ill-advised course of action.

Bob: "Adam you idiot, put down the phone and take off your retrospectacles"
