    Anyone remember that guy from The Other Place who was pretty hard done by and had a bunch of kids and he and his wife found out another was on the way with, like, basically moments to go? I wonder how he’s doing.

      Yes, his username contained “g” or “gee” right and the number 2?

      Edit: Removed link, but I believe the profile is geetwo_g2

        I remember that, G 7 or something? Or was that the nickname for the child?

        Spent quite a bit of time in hospital if I remember.

        Sad to hear that the funds weren’t used for the purpose people thought it was originally.

      I wound up hiding that account. A bunch of people chipped in to help him with something specific and he spent the money on something else, then lined up to have another kid. Fuck’s sake mate, wrap it up. Just felt they were always in a ditch and posting about all the digging they were doing to keep themselves there. e: I remember, it was “the snip” that people chipped in for.

        I was sus too but I’m ultra cynical at the best of times and have learnt to reserve my opinion, haha.

      Speaking of people from the other place, there was someone who had just gotten an ADHD diagnosis, was on here for a bit in the beginning?
