So Iām an AMC shareholder
So Iām an AMC shareholder, which means I own some of the business. Because the stock kept getting halted today I decided to go to my local AMC and support the stock by buying some concessions. I went up to the stand and told the casher (his nametag said Melvin) that I was a shareholder and wanted to support the business. He looked excited and told me to close my eyes and hold out my hand for a surprise shareholder treat. I canāt believe it, but he just covered my hands in liquid butter! Now Iām typing this at home and cant get it off my hands, and my keyboard is all greasy typing this, What do I do?

GME bank consultation
Short story-time for amusement reasons only:
some days ago, I went to my bank (Austria). I am the owner of quite a number of GME shares and my broker app is actually just the bank-intern bond trading app, where I need to pay transactional feed everytime I buy (what is sell?) GME shares. I informed myself about the reasoning of those transactional fees beforehand and found out that by paying them, I have the right of consultation by my bank about the shares theyāre trading/Iām buying.
So, I went to the main national building of my bank, they were really friendly at the beginning, enthustiatically, I mentioned GME to them and that I wish for professional consultation about the financial details involved with that stock (I am not a financial guy, actually, I donāt exactly know whatās going on, itās all pretty crazy to me).
Suddenly, their posture and mimick changed pretty suddenly. I was told, they are not allowed to consult about GME. To my question, why this was the case, they told me, because GME is ātoo irrelevant for the big stock marketā. They are āaware of the past short squeeze, but one should no longer focus on GMEā. They acted as if GME was some āchildish financial playgroundā that should be forgotten about. When I confronted them with the huge recent naked short attacks and if they could explain to me possible effects of them if they were not covered, they just repeated themselves how āGME is not relevant, please focus on stocks like Apple or Amazon to be safeā.
I left the bank, buying more GME shares.

Fuck you all, Iām never listening to this sub again.
Yesterday I said weād see a rally like weāve never seen before
I was ridiculed and the market went down this morning so I accepted defeat and sold my nvda calls and got tesla puts.
My account is down bad right now. I also hedged with a tesla call so hopefully Iāll make something. Somehow oil also tanked.
Fuck you all. Iām only listening to myself now. Youāre all retarded and so am I for listening to you.
Edit: not sure why some of you degens think Iām blaming you. Of course itās my fault. This is a shitpost update. Stop taking it so seriously you retards
See you tomorrow

Police clearing out a homeless encampment
On my way into the office today I saw the police clearing out a homeless encampment under a bridge, forcing them into the cold and rain. I keep playing it over in my head and havenāt been able to focus on work all day because of my erection.
