It's just sad to see how his whole story unfolded, very unfortunate tbh. RIP :(

these pay pigs cannot help themselves WHAT the fuck. I get the kind gesture but the dude literally died and you're sending doordash orders. Leave his family alone.

it's gay and lame to send money and objects of value to lolcows or any livestreaming retard
I hope all his paypigs die of alcohol poisoning

The worst part is they got him fired from his job and basically got him banned from everything in the city. So all he could do was sit at home and rot. They created their own niggercattle rodeo and herded a bullied retard into a prison-like state of harshly restricted freedom where they just got to watch him slowly kill himself. When you go back and watch the cobes docu and his early stuff it's like night and day compared to the trailer era which was just endstage cobes, retrospectively.

Cobra dies.

The good really do die young.

RIP Cobra. He got more hate than most of those I listed and he deserved it the least.

To be fair Nick Bate is in prison and if he's not in seg being tormented and extorted every single day. Larson is most likely never going to leave the mental hospital and is being chemically lobotomized.
 
Why do people always say the same shit when someone dies? They were a wonderful, loving person, dedicated, kind to animals and the elderly, would always help anyone in need.

You people saw how Cobes was day in, day out. He was categorically none of those things.

He wouldn't want us being sad, toobz. Let's share our fave moments.
Mine was him making mac n cheese without draining the water and randomly shouting fuck rapists.

Probably his mead saga. I homebrew it too and was just amazed at what he was doing, and granted very critical of him being a retard and couldn’t pull it off but by God he managed it even after dumping a shit ton of skittles into the brew.

Might want to go back and see if I can recreate it.

I know this idea is going to be pretty much universally disagreed with, but can we put together something for his family? Like, Josh gave us so much. I don't want that to be for nothing. Clint deserves something.

I had the same thought. But ultimately, Clint would have to ask for it. Maybe he could set up a gofundme for some kind of celebration of his life event. Or maybe auction some of his possessions for charity.

"How dare people pay respect to the dead?"
 
Here to pay my respects. Fly high king.

I remember discovering him from the trappped doc ages ago. Reminded me at the time of some of the slightly slower/autistic kids from highschool. I think it's important to point out that Josh is dead today because of his creativity and uniqueness. He wasn't just a retard, he was an interesting retard.

He didn't deserve to go this early. He didn't do much wrong. In an environment where lolcows are constantly getting locked up for various crimes or experiencing scandals, Josh avoided this almost entirely- his only scandals were a few social fauxpas created by the mental condition he was born with, and perhaps due to the encouragement of others online.
Rest in Peace, Josh Saunders, Gothic King Cobra.

We pray Lord for the repose of Josh's soul...Lord, please have mercy on Josh, who struggled through his life with disabilities and disadvantages that were no fault of his own. Disabilities that may have limited his culpability, and caused people to further harm him with intoxicants. We know You are all loving, just, and understanding, and we hope that Josh was reconciled with You, maybe in ways known only to You, at the time of his death.
Holy family, we ask for your prayers for Josh, and for the consolation of his family and friends.
Saint Matthias, Patron of Alcoholics and Addicts- we ask for your prayers for Josh.
In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, Amen.

I also found Josh through the Trapped documentary around mid 2016. I was and still am a massive MDE fan and someone related to MDE directed the Gothic King Cobra trapped documentary (I think his name was Joel or something?) I highly recommend anyone who even slightly enjoys Cobra's content to go watched the Trapped documentary now it's a snapshot of Josh at his very peak of Youtube content and it's so funny. It's a documentary that's got a ton of heart and soul in it. Really well shot and edited too.

Who's saying that he was a role model or a perfect human being? We're just here remembering the boy, antics and gross habits included. People will miss him, people are affected by his death, people want to mourn. Don't be so fucking autistic about it.
 
Man I'm fucking mad about this shit. If it's true he died of appendicitis that was an easily preventable death, he should have been in the hospital days ago. I know the group home joke went on for a long time but I really really think he should have been in one, or at least lived at home in his father's basement like lots of autistic people do. He shouldn't have been all alone for so long, he needed someone to watch out for him especially in the state he was in.

I know a 3 families that take care of their disabled son at home, 2 are autistic (not much worse than josh) and one is crippled from type 1 diabetes and congestive heart failure that'll probably kill him in a few years. But even though these guys are disabled they still have loving families around them all the time that have their back and try to bring them out of their room for supper or go on trips with them. I'm not putting this on Clint, we all know cobra was a free spirit but I wish they had worked something out where he stayed at home instead of being all alone on his own since Stephanie moved out.

I saw alot of myself in Josh back when I started watching him as an incel in 2018. I thought it was really cool this autistic guy could still get a girlfriend and have all these cool adventures. As time went on eventually I got a girlfriend, got a good paying job, moved up in life but cobra sank and it annoyed me, not because I was pissed at him but because I thought a 1 in 8 billion unique guy like him deserved so much more. I always thought he'd turn it around and start living better, hell when he got sick I assumed he was on the way to the hospital and maybe just maybe this would be a turning point, but no. He's gone. And it ends so unfairly and badly for him, he genuinely didn't deserve it.

There will never be another king cobra, he might be the most unique and interesting guy who ever lived, he was no fucking cookie cutter. I've kept up with this guy for so many years so closely, I'd check in after a long day at work to get updates back in 2018 until today. It feels like I lost a buddy. I can't imagine how bad it is for Clint, you can tell despite his quirks and occasional failings he still loved the kid immensely and didn't deserve to see his own son pass so early so sadly. Prayers for his family and for cobes, hopefully whatever comes after is better for him, he deserved better.

People shitting on Clint really don’t know what bad parents are if that’s the case. No ones saying he even was a “good” parent in a lot of cases. But that man still looked out for his 34 yo son and kept him homed and out of trouble. You obviously haven’t seen a “bad” parent if you can say Clint didn’t try for him.
