Just came to say two things. Love the pod. And the plural of octopus is in fact octopuses not octopi. Something to do with the fact the word is Greek in origin and not Latin.

2021-05-16 03:10:43 +0000 UTCOne of my all-time favorite movies...and I’d say that the “did he do the murders or was it in his head” question is moot. The answer, which reinforces the satire, is that it doesn’t matter if it is real or not - because of his wealth, race, looks, and status, absolutely nothing he does actually matters, he’ll never be held accountable for his crimes, be they real or imagined, even if he longs for punishment. The world in which Patrick Bateman exists has no room for accountability. Be his crimes real or imagined, it doesn’t matter, because he simply...is not...there.
