Remember the business card scene from American Psycho?

A real life card-printer took issue with how bad the card in the film actually is (link here):

"There are a few problems with Patrick’s card: the type is set off-center, painfully far to the left edge. It is also set too low so that the tight lower margin of the card is out of balance with the much larger top margin.

"This gives the card an unhinged appearance, which might speak to the character’s mental state (though we’ll try to steer clear of film and character analysis here and stick to talking about the cards). In addition to the card being out of register, there isn’t a space between the ampersand and “Pierce” in the company name at the top right. Finally, Patrick’s card has a typo that is shared with the other four cards: all incorrectly spell the word “acquisitions” by omitting the c."

Anyway, they fixed it. And if you have the cash to blow, you can get 100 of their fixed (and admittedly quite pretty) version for 75 USD* here.

*which isn't that bad, but if you can afford to blow that kind of money, why not give it to a highly-effective+transparent charity working to help Ukraine and Ukrainian refugees instead?
