sour grapes
I hate it when the newspaper publishes these articles raving about all the brand new young talent excelling in their fields.
Some guy buys an inadequae 600 dollar bike and falls spectacularly in front of his dad, who then proceeds to buy him a $3500 bike. Now he's some stunt riding champion.
I buy an inadequate 600 dollar bike and fall so many times and so spectacularly I might be called an expert in the art of going splat. My dad thinks cycling is a waste of time and protests violently if I want to attach the bike rack to the car. Now I'm sitting in my school library whining.
Sigh. Yes yes I know. Sour sour sour sour grapes.
