Hindsight is always 20/20, until after a few more years, when it deteriorates to around 20/40, and then hindsight is like the glasses you wear only for driving at night, and they look so alien on you because you never otherwise wear them, so whenever other people are in the car they remark on them, and you always self-consciously mumble, “Yeah, I only wear them for driving at night.”
