People with the nickname "Coats" deserve the world! They are talented, super arts-y, love musicals, and are dog-people. They are some of the best people and they are not people you want to make your enemies. They are passionate and stand up for those they love. They truly care and anyone who knows a "Coats" is lucky to have them in their lives.
Friend: I wish I had a friend with a cool nickname, who is super talented, into musicals, reads a lot, and is generally an amazing person!

- Well, actually I know someone exactly like this! Have you heard of Coats ?

Trench Coats 

1. A type of coat which drapes down to your lower knees or near your feet. Occasionally has inner and/or deep pockets to carry materials.

2. A type of clothing that is infamously known by pretty much everyone in existence today from the Trench Coat Mafia who terrorized Columbine back in 1999.

3. I wear this kind of clothing and it scares the shit out of people.

4. If you wear it, you get severely steroetyped by pretty much anyone (even cops, who banned me from the mall for 'shoplifting'. They didn't like the coat, I presume).
Example 1: Me: I love my Trench Coat. It's so warm.

Example 2: Me: The Trench Coat Mafia made a bad name for these cool ass coats.

Example 3: Scared Citizen: Get that coat away from me!

Trench Coat Wearer: Fuck off, I ain't leaving buddy.

Example 4: Cop: I'm gonna have to let you leave, son.

Random Guy: Why, officer?

Cop: You shoplifted, didn't you?

Random Guy: Uh, no I didn't.

Cop: Well, the Trench Coat pretty much gives it away. You're banned for a year. If you come back, you'll be arrested.

Random Guy: I'm getting tired of this place, anyways. (Whispering) Fucking stereotype...

Surf Dracula Syndrome 

A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.

For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
