In all seriousness, what DID he mean by this?

I like him but I admit I just like edgy shit (although he's a bit self-indulgent even for me at times)

I think we could go to dephts here and argue that "This is not an exit" is about the futility of being, that even the hedonistic, limitless Patrick Bateman will never truly be fulfilled. That doing exactly what you want within the realms of the humanly possible is not enough for true happiness. But I think that gives BEE too much credit.

In reality it's probably about how there's literally no way out, not even telling people outright about how Pat murdered some people. Ellis is less about metaphors and more about edgyness. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed American Psycho.
