[edit:for not fot]

My coat is gone!

Sounds like nothing, but its a great deal to me. Last night I got
absolutely out of it and neglected my poor coat. Its gone. I went to
the bar this morning to retrieve it, and some idiot has lifted it. GOD
HELP THAT PERSON IF I SEE THEM.

Its a 3/4 lenth leather coat I've had for about 4 years. This sounds
like nothing but the fact is that I was bound to that coat. I was
always 'creepy leather coat guy', now I'm just creepy.

Every woman I've ever slept with was pulled primarily because of the
jacket. I've had no success with my leather bomber, or leather blazer
(Its not a fetish).

I truly feel like something has been ripped out of my life. I hadn't been wearingit of late, since it has been nice weather.

Any suggestions as to what to wear, (given that I wear that type of coat...)...??

EDIT: I FOUND IT, ON MY FLOOR, BEING THE DOZY c**t I AM.

[EDITx2: I THREW IT OUT.]

Being an idiot I still can't see where you do that. However, I found
[the coat] but, ironically put in in the rubbish. My short parting
(although it
was literally beside me the whole time) showed me that I was far too
attached to it. I seriously don't know what kind of coat is 'in' now,
though.

I guess this shows you to take more care with it.

Read Habboi - he's binned it :razz:

I'm in a similar situation with my jacket. Its a fairly pricey vans
snowboarding jacket that was bought, primarily, for snowboarding, but
that doesn't stop me wearing it loads. Odd thing is, a good portion of
it is the colour orange - not exactly a colour I'd typically wear. Its
not garish or anything, in fact I'd say it looks pretty damn cool, but
I've got myself a bit of a reputation for being "orange coat guy" :biggrin:

If there's one piece of clothing I wear entirely too much its my gray
hoodie. I feel most comfortable in that thing, like I'm ready for
anything.

It wont be GONE till the binmen come, which is three days time. I'm
getting real urges to fetch it out the bin, which is quite sad. I
didn't realise how much of a hold a bloody item of clothing had over me
untill now. Still, I'm glad I lost it, only to refind it, that's an
unhealthy attachment and one I'm better cleansing myself from.

That's true, fishy, but it also means less wierd stares when I walk down the street or try to get into bars. :razz:

I have taken it out of the bin, but I shall now get a good home.

I'm never wearing it again, instead it shall hide the nakedness of an
American student/tramp in need. Aren't I Mr. Genorousity today?
(shoulda said it was haunted and looks a bit like Cher, then flogged it
on ebay for a mint)

Anyways, what shall I wear instead of a really long leather coat?

You should send me your coat if you don't want it, Mephs... I'm naturally creepy but I'll never achieve my full creepy potential without a monstrous leather jacket.

I have a similar attachment to my pocket knife. The blade is a good 4" in length and people generally look at me askance when I whip it out to open a bag of chips, but I'd feel downright lost without it.
Some people are like slinkys...

They aren?t really good for anything, but you can't help but laugh when one tumbles down the stairs.

I dont know if I have anything I'm really attached to like that. I like some of my stuff but I really only care to hang on to things becuase in the back of my mind I think that I'll need them some day.

I supose the only things I really care for are my computer's D hard drive (it has all my Pictures, music, and website media), and a small green lighter with an elephant on it that I found on the ground in NewYork.

But I dont have any object that is part of me, something that would make me whole... and honestly I dont think I really understand that feeling.

The only inanimate object that I truly have an attachment with is a tiny feather pillow. I cannot sleep without the damned thing. I hurt my back years ago and sleeping is a pain.. literally. I look for any creature comfort I can to get what little rest I can.

Before you laugh, try sleeping with an eternal lower back ache.

I'm attatched to my watch and my skateboard. I got my watch 2
years ago in Florida, it was about $60 American, Fossil. The only
time I've ever taken it off, is well, every day to take a shower.
But other wise I haven't taken it off. My skateboard I got 1 year
ago, and have since gone through 5 different decks (the actual board
itself). Once I got my backpack that could carry my board, (11
months ago) I take my board everywhere. I'll throw it in the car
or take my backpack no matter where I'm going. I once got it
taken away for a week for skating at school, and I went mad.

'Tis all. Have fun kids!

Monqui asked first, he gets it. Sorry mate. Can I interest you in a few socks and underwear? All equally creepy. :razz:

You can't depend all your mojo on a single jacket.

You just have to train your other jackets to take over the role of your
old leather one. It takes time, and a lot of naked women.
But I am sure you're up to the challenge.

Mephs, Does this mean we're not coat buddies anymore? (IRC inside thing) Well come to think of it, i sold my 3/4 length brown leather jacket on ebay! So now we can be no-coat buddies!

I know how you feel though, I had to throw out my grey hoodie. I wore that thing like EVERY DAY in the fall-ish weather.
I tried sniffing coke, but the ice cubes kept getting stuck in my nose.
