All old stuff that was in the past which is still there but stored in the past only

Guy: Man I wish I could get my old ps2 back

Guy 2: It's still there, but in the retroverse.

Retrolocomotion

"...Retrolocomotion. It’s what happens when you get excited, buy a new game, then realize that you’ll never be able to recapture the wonder and excitement that the release of a new game used to bring you. Then, you have a slow decline into a depressive state as you realize that your best days are behind you and the rest of your life is relatively meaningless." u/Im_Not_Really_A_PhD

The Retrolocomotion is really setting in, man. Is this really all there is left?

retrologic

retroactive (and often selective) local argument made to justify actions, thoughts, beliefs, or choices made in the past or before the retroactive justification was formed. it describes creating a reason, justification, or any other device of human reason and/or argumentation after the said actions, thoughts, beliefs, or choices were made. Do 'it' now and invent a why later.

Often people's answers to hard questions for their dubious, questionable, or morally debatable actions during stressful, precarious, tumultuous, turbulent, or uncertain times are retrological. They construct reasoning and argue for and from it even if that why was completely different true why (if any) from the subject-matter requiring the reason. That's retrologic.
