The universe rubbing your face in your own fuck up.

In hindsight Jenny realised her first (mistake) was (inserting) the vacuum nozzle into her (vagina).

Hindsight

After you screw something up, you magically and conveniently gain a vast amount of knowledge on what you SHOULD have done to avoid screwing up.

Although it generally occurs after you really messed up, it doesn't necessary always happen after such a negative situation.

Girl- "Hey Dave, I just tested positive on that pregnancy test, you dunce."

Dave- "You know, maybe I kind of, should have used a rubber at that party 2 weeks ago.... " <--(Hindsight)

Girl- "Yeah... that probably would have been a very good idea."

Hindsight

Post nut clarity
Realising something after it's been done

Ex: in hindsight, I probably shouldn't have stared at his ass for too long, nor wonder his girlfriend was mad at me

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."
