Retrobution

I rather believe it's more 'retrobution' than 'retribution' . . .

retrolution

A "revolution", usually led by elderly conservatives, aimed backwards in time toward the restoration of some idealized period in the past, often the 1950s.

Retrolution (retro-revolution) is a right wing reaction against modern society and politics. Retrolutionists often scream about "Taking the country back" from the liberal, progressive left wing of politics. What they mean is both "taking the country back" physically, as well as "taking the country back" in time, usually to the time of their own youth.

The underlying causes of the retrolutionary spirit are the fear of old age and death, moral disapproval based on resentment, and hatred and envy towards "immoral" young people.
"The Tea Party movement is part of the exciting GOP Retrolution."

"Some would argue that the Bush administration was even more retrolutionary than the Reagan administration."

"Beck and Palin are powerful retrolutionary leaders."

retribution car

A retribution car is the vehicle you buy after your original car has been taken away/sold without your approval (for example: your original car was taken in a divorce settlement or was sold by a co-signer). The retribution car is a better, saucier, or somehow sassier vehicle than the original.
Bridget: My dad was an a-hole and sold my super cute 2004 carolla without my permission!

Eden: Oh my god! What did you do?

Bridget: I bought an even cuter 1987 2-door BMW in amazing condition. I paid in full so the title is in my name and sent him some pics of the new vehicle.

Eden: Nice retribution car!
