Found this guy from a YouTube "documentary" and he might be worth a thread. Kais Maalej / Qais al-Muajalij(?) / CrinkleFriesNYC is a delusional stock "influencer" from Queens (originally from Tunisia) who posts frequently on YouTube, Twitter, and Reddit. He has a deep love for Bed Bath & Beyond (BBBY), a stalkerish obsession with investor Ryan Cohen, and a deep hatred for CNBC's Jim Cramer and BBBY CEO Sue Gove.
Kais has built up a complex conspiracy theory around BBBY, where investor Ryan Cohen (and Elon Musk) merges BBBY with Gamestop and Kraft-Heinz intoGmerica TEDDY in order to take down Amazon. This was, of course, predicted 100 years ago by Teddy Rosevelt and hinted at by Cohen's autistic tweets as well as cryptic messages in children's books. Believe it or not, he's part of a larger group of delusional BBBY bagholders with an obsession with Ryan Cohen, who unironically parrot theories very similar to Kais' own.
What makes Kais especially stand out from the usual gaggle of investment redditors is the batshit stunts he pulls on his YouTube videos. This includes holding up traffic to harass a trucker, calling an OBGYN pretending to be Ryan Cohen [47:08], getting caught trespassing at a BBBY fulfillment center [58:50], pretending to be a deliveryman to "prove" that a former BBBY CFO's suicide was faked [1:01:07], getting warned by the police for trespassing at the BBBY headquarters [1:19:00], pissing on the CNBC headquarters sign [1:27:38], and harassing journalists [1:30:22].
Some videos have been privated so I had to pull timestamps from the documentary video
Though given that BBBY's being completely liquidated and its shares cancelled, there's a chance he'll either fizzle out or there will be an explosion of hilarity when his delusions don't come to pass. Though if anyone thinks he's worth a thread still, help archiving and digging would be nice.
