He was actually replying to Psyche, as far as i can see. Who made a tiny mistake. It's "un post" (although post is an anglicism and I am not sure what dreadful crap French authorities invented to replace that one) rather than "une post".

Eddie Izzard is frankly cool. And, just in case you've never seen the ref: 1'26 into the video

and i was playing along with all the bateman posts that weren't posts by referencing the surrealist artist magritte's famous "ceci n'est pas une pipe" painting. it wasn't hostile at all.

mistake, gilles? ah non, the "e" was my clever giveaway. entirely intentional. yes indeedy.
