It does sound plausible, but I wouldn't put too much weight on such Reddit chatter, nor spread such gossiping rumors. That level of indirection ("reddit guy who knows a friend but isn't sure") is worse than "my aunt's neighbor's nephew". Imagine somebody did this about you, that'd suck.

Fair point, can a moderator delete my comment above? I apologize for spreading rumor.
