I Learn From Their Mistakes

I learn from the mistakes of the people I give advice to

Patrick Bateman sits in a chair wearing sunglasses and holds a cigarette while looking smug. The joke is that he claims to learn from the mistakes of people he advises, implying his advice is deliberately bad and he benefits from their failures. It is used as a sarcastic reaction to someone giving questionable advice or exploiting the consequences of others’ mistakes.
