Every Woman You Know Has Walked Home Scared

Text on the meme

Every woman you know has taken a longer route. Has doubled back on herself. Has pretended to dawdle by a shop window. Has held her keys in her hand. Has made a fake phone call. Has rounded a corner and run. Every woman you know has walked home scared. Every woman you know. When walking home at night I sometimes pretend to be drunk / disabled hoping that someone antagonizes me so I can annihilate them

What it means

The meme contrasts a serious description of women taking precautions while walking home at night with Patrick Bateman's comment about pretending to be drunk or disabled so someone will antagonize him. The joke comes from the absurd reversal: instead of fearing an attacker, he is looking for an excuse to annihilate one, making the reaction darkly aggressive and ironic.
