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".

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!!!!!!

hoe hindsight

The hindsight or gut feeling that someone you are interested in is a hoe, or that they are a terrible person to date.
Guy 1: “Damn, how’d it go with Stacy last night? I heard you guys broke up.”

Guy 2: “Yeah, I didn’t have any hoe hindsight when I met her. I didn’t realize she was “dating” 4 other dudes.”

Humorous in hindsight

A situation that, in the moment, is stressful and chaotic. It later becomes funny because enough time has passed for you to see the ridiculousness of it.
*after chasing down their toddler when he got out of the house naked*
Mom: This kid, I swear!! It’s like he wants to see me lose my sanity!
Dad: I’m sure this story will be humorous in hindsight one day.
Mom: You mean like when he’s 16 and bringing home a girlfriend?
Dad: Umm... Sure... Something like that.
