Belatedly Sad Bunny - RIP Gman/Gabe I only dip into Metafilter occasionally the past few years & I just found out about gman/Gabe's passing.

I'm sad I missed the event but hadn't seen him in years. There are some cute (OLD) pics of us at meetups. He introduced me to his personal brand of world-traveling bombastic epic storytelling, along with the requisite (VERY excellent) hash he would procure on his far-flung travels.

Fuck. Godspeed, brother. MeFi has given me so many friends and acquaintances and all too many have passed on way ahead of the rest of us.

ps hi everyone I love u

I hadn't seen that. Thank you for pointing it out.

For me as a Dutchman metafilter hardly materialised in the world. Probably because there were so few local people on mefi.
So I can't say metafilter has given me many friends or acquaintances.
But I did spend a lot of time on mefi. And I do recognise the username gman. And so many others in that thread.

And it seems to be a time of loss in the community...so many, so young.
