An acronym, C.O.A.T stands for Cunt Of A Thing.
This acronym was originally developed in the town of Melbourne,
Australia in
mid 2006 as a means of describing a strongly unpleasant, offensive, or undesirable
female, or a female displaying qualities considered highly undesirable at a given moment.
The beauty of this term is its adaptable nature, and its subjective application.
Also, this term allows
one to use a highly offensive term towards someone, in a fashion that does not sound offensive. To this end it is often found in use in offices, professional environments, and there is also
one unsubstantiated account of this term being used in a Supreme Court towards the presiding judge.
"That Candace is a fair-dinkum COAT, isn't she Bryce!"
"I had to get out of the
house for a while Brad, the missus is being a COAT..."
"I cant believe you
baby; you are really acting
like a COAT right now. Pull your head in!"
Her - "Youre such a bastard....just buy me an engagement ring already, it's about time after
4 years together..."
Him - "For fucks sake Candace, you are an absolute COAT...we're over bitch! Pack your shit and hit the bricks."
