    I must question the reasoning behind me being in there.


    Good news, I guess:
    I've felt quite a bit better than I have in probably months, reasoning behind lack of activity.
    I was in an extremely depressive episode, having suicidal tendencies again. :sigh:
    This good feeling will more than likely not last, but I guess I should treasure it while it lasts.
    I am also starting to feel guilt, remorse, sympathy etc. again.

    This weekend, I think I'll do a marathon of MLP. I actually haven't seen any of it in probably a month or so.

    I do say. In fact, I go is far as to say that Keanu isn't wearing a trench coat at all. A trench coat is more than just a really long jacket, you know.

    Exactamundo. The coats used in The Matrix were especially modified and designed to appear sleeker and more stylish than the classic trench coat while still being all swooshy and looking awesome when you roundhouse kick an Agent in the kidneys.

    Neo's coat is cool. Just not quite as awesome as Cloud Strife's half-coat...

    *Looks at definition*
    *looks at coat*

    Doesn't look like a trench coat to me.

    Depends on how loose you are with terms. Technically they are different things and serve vastly different purposes, but one was greatly inspired by the other. I'd say that no, the coats in the Matrix aren't trench coats, but you can make the distinction if you're merely describing what they superficially look like.

    here is a better definition

    The trenchcoat is a long waterproof coat, traditionally made of gabardine. The term originated in the trenches of the First World War, due to the popularity of this style of coat amongst officers in the British armed forces. The trench coat is not merely a functional warm raincoat but also stylish, with long wide lapels and decorative buttons. The trenchcoat is often belted and might be tailored in at the waist

    They were HIGHLY modified, to the point where the final design had only superficial resemblance to the original; specifically, the coat's length and some of the other proportions.

    Anyway, I'm off to bed too. Early start tomorrow, got to go pick up a copy of Fight Club from school :D Finally, a book to study that actually engaging and decent.

    Today I learned (yes, I learned something, in the morning no less) that using photoshop with a touchpad is not the best of ideas.
