I agree 100% but based on what we know and have seen of his teeth, fixing them would cost a lot of money. It is not a matter of just fixing the actual teeth, it would require a lot of surgery to first remove the teeth, then you have to prep the gums. That is going to entail at minimum a few deep scale cleanings, a few rounds of antibiotics, and weeks of specialize rinses to at least stop his gum disease from getting any worse. If all that fails, then he will need gum tissue transplant.

After all that is said and done, then he has to either get implants which is not a fun procedure nor is it cheap, or dentures. At minimum to get that mouth back to comfortable state, Cobes would probably be looking at, $30,000 worth of dental surgery easily.

Taxpayers will foot the whole bill for surgery and dentures.

I think I've met smarter and higher achieving people with downs syndrome. With better hygiene too.

They must have used Tactical Soap

Cobra is already at the point where quitting would be painful. Where he's at you don't just stop drinking and the next day you're cool. Severe depression and anxiety will happen at the least for a week or two. That's if he's lucky.

I'm at the point of wondering if he tried he's likely to need in-patient treatment or to be in a place he's going to be supervised not because he's in a medically risky position yet but because he has no self control and will give up the moment it gets rough or at least uncomfortable.

I could oddly see Clint an Tannis giving it a DIY shot and it failing or being a disaster and him getting packed off somewhere to do it, but the moment he's alone for a while and is bored him getting his hands on something and being right back to where he started in a few weeks.

You can always tell when he is out of booze because that's when he does his arms crossed pouting ebegging streams. Hard to tell what he is like on these days when not on camera though.

Yea Toddler streams, he's the kid who's been told he can't have a cake or toy and is pouting because everything he's done hasn't worked an he's fresh out of ideas - THEN when he does get money you can see his eye's light up and he's planning OK out of Red now so that's 3 bottle of bud light, make that 6 preciate the donations....

I've seen that behaviour in other addicts not just booze but when they are in forced rehab or therapy and planning on getting fucked out their brains the moment they find a extra bit of cash, or manage to get there hands on something they can trade for there poison of choice.

I saw a guy recently in my local Tesco counting his money and then comparing cheap get's you fucked booze prices an then checking again trying to do some mental maths of what will get him fucked up an keep him fucked up with the minimal funds he had, and just walked on - wanted to help him I really did but you get a 6th sense about people wanting help and he was far from ready and I get that off Josh.

Honestly believe that if he dies, it will either be his heart giving out from inhalants, or something related to his pancreas or maybe I'll be surprised and the lungs and chain-smoking will catch up to him before the liver is even a cause for concern.

I don't think it's going to be the Booze that get's him unless it's a secondary cause like choacking on his vomit, a fall he can't prevent an getting a bump on the noggin or if he's out getting food into traffic (seen that happen with sober people, not a nice way to go). It's going to be either him having a seasure or something else from Inhalant use or he get's his hands on something he's not used too or takes a big boy hit and it fucks him up - People forget his lungs are fucked from birth he was a preme who needed assistance specifically with his lungs and they already have problems even as an adult even if he lived a healthy life he's going to have issues.

He's also likely got some other issue related biologically like weak heart or an arrhythmia (common with pre-me kids with lung issues) and he's also got cognitive issues pre-existing his inhalant use, and he's now had active TIA's on camera and he's been hiding them for a while more than just "bog.exe has stopped working" he's having genuine missing time incidents with physiological symptoms. He's getting them semi regularly too going of the extent we see them.

That's what's going to fuck him if he's lucky, it's not much of a stretch of imagination to see it going much worse and surviving only in a technical sense where he's confined to a chair shitting himself in a care or group home, and death is always an option.

Unless Clint get's him serious help and soon 12 - 24 months and he's not going to be here or if he is he's not going to be the same.

Did anyone catch Josh blaming his phone not working on the trolls hacking it? He 100% blames mundane issues on the trolls when not on camera. I imagine him stubbing his toe on the bug chair and blaming it on the trolls.

He’s been fucked with so much he’s got paranoid delusions

 

[Big Nasty]

I think a lot of Cobros probably have a history of heavy drinking. Just saying.

 

[PetiteFeet]

I would pay to see Cobes with hair plugs, fake teeth, and an obnoxious tan.

I unironically want Cobes to get a set of dentures that look like vampire teeth. Cool Taste may have been joking but I'd pay money for that to happen.

Spoiler: PL sperg

I only know from my mother's own dentistry journey that took over a year (ignoring corona) and her mouth was nowhere near as awful as where Josh is with his teeth, how costly and all-consuming it was, not only for her but for my father as well. From getting the bad teeth pulled, to waiting for the infection of her gums to go away, to getting her temporary dentures and then her temporary permanent prosthetic, then finally her actual permanent prosthetic for both top and bottom jaw.
She had the luxury of medical tourism and even then her final cost was well over 17k dollars.
I don't know how expensive dentistry is in America so I can't even begin to imagine what the final cost would've been had she been an American citizen rather than from a country with free healthcare (although dentistry is out of your own pocket when you turn 1

I don't believe for a second that Josh would be able to take care of his mouth for a week, much less a longer period of time and whatever recovery his mouth needs to go through before the dentists could begin working on either dentures or permanent prosthetics. And I sure as shit can't see Clint going above and beyond to help him, I wouldn't even hold it against him all things considered.

I don't remember, how did the eye surgery arc go? I only remember he had to wear some stupid glasses for a bit.

He's gonna be so wasted come yootoob payday

 

[AnOminous]

It's crystal clear this is the trajectory he's on til he's either crippled from health issues or gets evicted or dies, and I feel like that just makes it less fun to watch, and him a lot harder to root for.

I'm not going to root for him because he obviously isn't even rooting for himself at this point, but I can't really bring myself to hate him or wish harm on him. I reserve that for complete pieces of shit like Boogie. Even there I'm playing it up for the lulz. The only cows I really hate and actually do wish harm on are the predators like Nick Bate, Goonclown and the like.

Cobes is just a (mostly) harmless retard. The only times he has actually caused harm (like to the lizard) it was because some dipshit put him in charge of that lizard in the first place. I'd wish him well but it's obvious that shit isn't going to happen because he's a self-destructive fuckup.

giving me aids. clint is retarded. reddit is retarded. cobes is retarded. you, dear reader, are retarded.

Lmao enjoy your aids. And your retardation.

Funny that you mention it. He's still struggeling with 100 = 80 + x. As much as I'd like to see all of the people of the extended Cobra universe take a PSAT, I think it's fair to say that Cobes is way more retarded than the average Casperite.

Casper is a special place but not really special retarded. The other major Wyoming city (to the extent either of them are major) is Cheyenne (spook infested glowie type). And Casper has something like 50,000 people. The general culture is mind your own goddamn business and so long as you don't fuck with people they don't care what you do in your personal life.

Cobes would probably do better if he was in one of the trailer parks that surround Casper in like a 10 mile radius like some kind of cowboy Oort Cloud, because his yelling and screaming wouldn't annoy his neighbors who wouldn't be close enough to hear him anyway. Cops would also probably be a lot less interested in driving 20 miles round trip to show up to hassle some guy about redditards making bullshit calls.

Wyoming is the most sparsely populated of the connected continental states and if you want somewhere you can be left the fuck alone, it is one of your few remaining options.

I don't consider the people there who don't want to see it Californicated as dumb for that.

implant bone conduction microphones into his skull and play every single Yoko Ono song into his head non stop

That's hardcore man, that's beyond what even I'd do.

Hell, I'd just kill him and be done with it.

Also lol again at the welfare check.

"Do you know what day it is?"
"Wednesday or Thursday..."

The cop basically goes "Fuck it, close enough. Keep on rockin' bud."

Hey, he at least knew that days were a thing. It was pretty competent as Cobetardation goes.

Good point, maybe that tipped the cops off he was of sound mind.

 

[BallBuster II]

How big was the bottle of JD he polished off, was that a 750ML bottle? Had to be at least that big. Has anyone here (no judging) every drank that much whiskey in a 4 hour setting?

I drank half a fifth a whisky in around 4 hours in my younger days and was fucking trashed. I might just be a light weight though because I've known hardcore alcoholics who drank a fifth a day. Though they probably spread their drinking out a bit.

I'm surprised he still has a liver with all that alcohol he's consumed.

I think that’s the consensus of anybody around him that could help. just like “fuck it, it’s not worth the monumental effort to help this guy since it’s obvious he’ll immediately undo all that work”

Everybody likes to talk about what the people around cobra should or shouldn’t be doing to help but I can guarantee if they were the ones with that burden or actually had to help him themself they’d be saying “ah fuck it, keep on rockin’ bud!” Too
