Lolcow KingCobraJFS / Josh Saunders - Amateur musician, YouTube Streamer, wandmaker, and self-proclaimed "sexy goth badboy". Perpetually circling the drain.

I'm on a food hack date and I don't know what to say he's goth as fuck and I'm nervous

If Cobes cleaned himself up he could look like that gay hitman from Diamonds are Forever

I don't think Cobes will ever be mainstream. For Cobes to hit peak hilarity you have to sit through hours of nothing happening. Thats why when the ridiculous shit happens its so funny, because you've been along for the journey. If not, its just a alcoholic making shitty food.,
I would disagree, as long as boglim chronicles keeps pushing short videos on Josh. I don't see why people wouldn't watch him. Hell... when I became a fan, if it wasn't for Bitesize, I'd wouldn't care for the retard.
 
Cobes neighbors are happy about him getting that Aztec death whistle.

It's probably been advised to him, but he'd benefit massively from making shorter videos, like that house tour one. He was coherent, put an iota of thought into it and itll get more views than a 3 hour livestream of him passed out drunk. Damn, even throw a little editing in there from time to time. When 30% of the video is silence because he's just walked out the room you're gonna choose to watch the same content via Bitesize.

That care package deftly walked the very fine line of including things that would appeal to Cobra but also subtly troll him.

The sugary drinks, candy, etc — all shit he will happily scarf down, but is also terrible for his teeth.

The death whistle for the reason you mentioned: cool and “goth” but also a potential annoyance for neighbors.

The Gandalf pipe is juuustt nice enough for him to appreciate it, but will be absolutely ridiculous looking if he chooses to use it. (I think he thought better of the first one that was sent to him, but this one seems a little more stout.)

Not sure if he’s ever talked about it, but it looks like he keeps all of his fan gifts and donations over in this corner.

You can see a couple different types of shipping containers stuffed in there, and there appears to be multiple “fan” art objects in the pile that are in no way flattering. I wonder if he feels sentimental about this stuff or if he’s just too lazy to throw it out. I know his closet in the front of the apartment is where a lot of his unwanted stuff ends up, so I wonder why these objects make the cut for the shelf.

I would love a chance to browse through that mess and see what gems are gathering dust in there.

Also, fuckin LOL at not only one, but multiple books existing in the Cobra lair. Guess he can burn those if his heat ever gets shut off for non-payment.

I had told someone who was wondering why he hadnt just pawned the stuff people send him that he legit loves those gifts. He's a rockstar and thats proof he's got fans sending him fanmail and gifts. He's gonna hold onto them because they do mean a lot to our boy.

that or he's just too lazy to cross town to a pawnshop lugging all that crap lmao

I think you're right. He doesn't give a steady supply of lolz and the main 'fans' are now just watching to see what happens. I started watching about two years ago back when we were still debating if he was an alcoholic or not -- that ship has fucking sailed.

You watch now and it's not to see the weird shit they autistic guy with 'magic powers' and a dick tattoo gets up too, it's literally you are watching an alcoholic slowly kill themselves. His fall has really accelerated since his Birthday Disaster
 
he has. I'm pretty sure he still has one sitting on his kitchen table.
Haha that's hilarious thanks for the quick reply
I wonder why he doesn't choose to do hookah or vape or even use a loose leaf vape (usually for weed but you can use tobacco) all I ever see him with is the pipe all those other things he could do indoors

When he first started getting gifts, he'd sometimes get disposable vapes but he always complained that they were worse than his snipes and bag of pipe tobacco because it was made with the same stuff as antifreeze. He was really autistic about pipe tobacco back in the day. Obviously he's changed his opinion and vapes without complain and cooled out a lot sperging about the nuances of cheap pipe tobacco. At least he seemed passionate about things back then.

Judging by his vape use and the "yum burnt coil" comments it used to get, he can't be assed to learn anything electronic or that is more work than just throwing a pinch into a pipe. He definitely smokes indoors still.

One of my favorite overlooked details in Cobra lore is that 101 Dalmatians was what got Josh started liking pipe smoking.
 
Trying to light the hookah with a propane torch was the bog that broke the camel's back in the old apartment (remember tho it was the troles that got him evicted)
How do we know that's what got him evicted? Did his old land lord say something

Back in the day around 2015-2016 before the clip channels took off you would have to manually scrub through videos or just leave it on in the background and hope to god something funny would happen. A big reason why Cobes took off in the past few years and why people like Danny Brown are name dropping him is because of people like Bitesized, Leninlime, Boglim chronicles. If not for the clip channels it would just be 100 or so weird obsessed autists like it used to be.

I remember waaay waaay waaay back in the day when I mostly just was active in the ADF thread, seeing Cobes's vids in the wild and chortling at how fucking retarded the guy looked, but I never got too into him until about 2020. You def got it right about the clip channels making it bearable.
