This is a question Fancy Dress Failures Pt 2

Janet Aylia asks, "Did you go all-out only to find you'd fallen for the age-old 'you're the only one who dressed up' gag? Did you wrap yourself in cotton wool and ketchup and offend the local vicar by dressing as a tampon?"

Penguin Suit
For reasons now lost in the anals of time, I once had to dress up as a penguin.* It must have been some event, as I remember we got our picture in the local paper. Even better, after the event we got to keep the costumes!

Now, for some reason, I really took to that costume. I wore it whenever possible: not just around the house, but in the street, in shops, everywhere. For several weeks I wore it all the time, and I was as happy as Rolf Harris in Mothercare.

Now when I look back, I realise with horror that I was "that kid". You know the one. Every neighbourhood has one: not crazy, just... different.

On the plus side, I suspect there are lots of us here on B3ta these days!

Oops, misread "suit" as "shit".

Anals of time
I'm not sure if it was deliberate, but if it was, then well-played.

Also, this is one of my favourite penguin costumes images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20090104233149/wikiality/images/2/23/Nun1.jpg (prob. NSFW)
