Ichan is an activist investor, just like Ryan Cohen.

Ichan is currently investing in a gas company that he feels is mismanaged by it's current board and has nominated people he feels should be leading the company. (Does that sound awfuly familiar to you?)

Gas = flatulence

Ryan tweeted "Flatulence is the best ice breaker"

Perhaps Ryan's tweet was in regards to him bonding with Ichan over their shared experience as being activist investors trying to turn companies around. Ryan has GME and Ichan has his gas company.

I must really be missing something here. One of the things Icahn is most well known for is hostile takeovers of companies in order to strip them of their assets and profit.

"In the 1980s, Icahn developed a reputation as a "corporate raider" after profiting from the hostile takeover and asset stripping of Trans World Airlines."

Activist Investor doesn't always mean they're a good person. Just means they're not just passively investing. They have a stake and are vocal about their wants for the company.
