You'd think they'd learn
But they don't.
Remember Railway and the Harry Potter costume?
This lot don't. Cue many whinings on kids winning costume competitions over their blood sweat and tears.
As always, the best wank is in the comments, like this gem from madsophiehatter:
Once, I was in a Harry Potter look-alike contest. This was back before puberty was as obvious and I grew my hair out - back then, I looked a TON like Harry Potter. The messy (almost) black hair, the big eyes, the half-starved weedy look, etc.
I put on my 200+ pound father's rattiest clothing and went as Harry at the Dursley's.
A pudgy blonde boy with curly hair won because his parents bought him the whole "Movie Outfit TM!!!!11!"
It's not that I lost - it's that I lost to some spoilt kid who only won because his parents bought him a stupid costume, when I worked hard and fufilled the requirements better. So I know at least a bit of how you feel.
Er no, sweetheart. Borrowing your dad's clothes does not equal hard work.
