AITA for laughing my ass off at this guy?

So some absolute genius in California thought he’d pull off the heist of the century—stealing a van full of high-end cameras, mics, and gaming PCs. But here's the kicker: dude left his phone in his pocket. Which was broadcasting live on Twitch. To his 12 followers.

Police say the stream showed him giggling, whispering "we eatin’ tonight chat," and then panicking when he realized he forgot to turn off the stream. By the time he got home, cops were already waiting at his front door, eating snacks from his fridge.

TL;DR: Man tries to become a professional thief, becomes a viral meme instead. Twitch chat was wild, btw.
