When my son was 3, we asked him what he wanted to be for Halloween.
"I wanna be a pirate!" he said.
So we got a tri-corner hat and a striped shirt and an eyepatch and a vest, and got him all dressed up and put him in front of a mirror.
He looked at his reflection and frowned. "This isn't what the pirates wear!"
My wife and I looked at each other, "Yes, sweetie, they do!" said my wife.
"Not when they're flying the airplanes!" he said.
Pilots. Oh.
