        It’s not “coat = arm,” it’s “coat OF arms,” and I could totally some psychopath making a coat out of other people’s arms.

          Me: Do you want to see my coat of arms?

          My friend: Oh, you’re into heraldry?

          Me, pulling a coat made out of human arms from my closet: What’s heraldry?

      Ffs it’s only a Coat if Arms if it’s from the arms region of France. Otherwise it’s just a sparkling jacket
