Heard Crazy Train today and almost wanted to cry. I was hesitant to even post about it, but then I realized what made me love Cobra. It was his sincerity, him just being himself. Anytime you try and be genuine (not on here, just the wider Internet), some faggot responds with a soyjak holding a sign that says “HERE’S SOME EMBARRASSING SHIT ABOUT ME”, or some fucking broccoli-haired zoomer will reply “Blud was gonna cry 💀💀💀”. But I am sad, Cobra was one of the finite things in this life that made me smile and be happy, and now he’s gone. We could all learn a lesson from Cobes and ditch the fear of being open and honest about who we are and how we feel.

Snarky faggots like most Redditors live life entirely immersed in irony (or ironic hyperbole) because it blankets their fragile egos from any accountability or judgement. It has become an increasingly more common default personality type.

Cobes was the opposite. Uncompromising sincerity. TMDWTFIUY
 
What duty did they owe Cobra?
Everyone has a general duty not to harm others, but it's very rare to violate it by something the other did to harm himself. Mailing Everclear to someone in Wyoming is legal. Mailing duster to someone in Wyoming is legal. Mailing duster with the intent the recipient use it illegally under Wyoming's inhalant laws is illegal, and context indicates that's why they were sending it, but good look proving that.

Now, Jessica Boyle's extremely bizarre choice to send extremely poisonous seeds to Cobes in a box of unsealed food, with no warning that they were extremely poisonous, should be concerning.

Spotify threw this shit at me and had me tearing up. Especially the line, "that's the way our people are." Josh was our guy. I hope there's some kind of Cobra monument that can be put up in Casper.

I think this would be better than a statue in the middle of town, tbh. A nice spacious lot in a cemetery with a nice tombstone (great movie toobz) and they can facet that bell he bought Ozzy on top so the Cobros and Cobras angels can ring it when they visit his final resting place. Maybe enjoy a dank food hack and a sick drink combination with him there, because ghost food is real.

Huh? I mean, if she sent the seeds with a note saying "you should swallow these whole or crush them up and mix them into your mead, you'll get really high!" that might be the case but even as retarded as Cobes has sometimes been in the past I can't imagine him seeing random (yet labeled), hard as fuck (and presumably quite bitter tasting) seeds and think "yeah I'll just start eating these for no reason."

If he did for some reason... really for any other reason than being "tricked" by a note or something saying they'd make him trip then he'd really have been dumber than we all thought. Sorry, Cobros. But I really don't think that's what took him out. I guess we'll see when someone nabs the autopsy details.

I also heard Crazy Train while out today running errands. I like to think it was Cobes sending a sign from the hereafter that he's making dank drink combos with Ozzy and his other homeboys TMDWU
 
I left after Fed Smoker died. I guess I'm coming back to say goodbye to Josh. I'm gutted, and I have made a sick honey monster combo in your honor buddy. Fuck redditors fuck sickos.
 
Our boy made the Hindustan Times. And the Economic Times remembered him as a musician.
kingcobrajfs i'd rather beat off than beat women shirt.webp
Truly an exquizid choice of image to use for an "In Memory Of" portrait saar. Still giving laughs even in these serious times.

Wrongful death is basically negligence that results in a death. The elements of negligence are duty, breach, cause, and harm (death, in this case).

Duty hinges on a special relationship in most instances. That or the conduct creates a broader "zone of danger." Neither really apply here. There's just nothing there... and then like I said earlier, you would have to overcome the negligent conduct of both cobra and Clint. They are way more culpable than the random person sending booze.

I know we all want someone to be held accountable, but it would be an uphill battle. I just don't see it.
The burden of proof in civil court is very low. I’d argue they had a duty to leave him alone and not harass him, including sending him the means to kill himself.

Remember how OJ won in criminal court, but the Goldmans owned his ass because of civil? Yeah.

The seeds are in season come autumn (and early spring but too late now), so maybe there's some retard logic she's trying to follow. That being said, I'd be incredibly concerned about her handling the seeds and touching the other stuff in the package. Or the plastic not being properly sealed and seeds being loose.
 
I wonder if Cobes grave will become one of those cult tourist spots. I can imagine a lot of cobros passing through will want to pay the grave a visit and leave behind some liquor or tinned fish for the boy.
Possibly, if he has a spot (as in a grave) it will be popular for, id say, 3 years. New fans, old alogs that happened to be in the area. In 15 years the occasional drink combo being dumped on the ground and some coins left behind for the new forum that replaces Kiwi. 20+ years? nothing. Thus is life, we are all born to die. A "famous youtuber" is a dime a dozen, there are youtube teens with millions of subscribers you, nor I have ever heard of.
 
Fuck sickos dood. We lost a real one.

In light of Cyraxx trying to grift off of Josh’s passing I’m sticking this little clip everywhere.

Cobes wanting to die at 34 because it “has the numbers 3 and 4” and actually dying at 34 is poetic. It’s far, far too soon for him to die, but even still. You just KNOW wherever he is out there he’s hyped about it
Poetic or criminal. Let’s see what the autopsy says.

You know what’d be kick ass if a memorial doesn’t work? A Joshua Faye Saunders memorial scholarship for kids in music and media.

Under Wyoming law, duty of care is not an absolute requirement to be found liable for wrongful death, only a general guideline. If a person acts negligently or recklessly in a manner that they know or reasonably should know will cause the death of another and does in fact cause such death, they're liable for wrongful death. This is why drunk drivers can and have been found liable for wrongful death after causing motor vehicle accidents, including in the State of Wyoming.
 
As sad as it is to see the boy go, I feel like it was his time. We've watched his journey through life starting as an energetic, quirky young man with a job, a girlfriend, and dreams and becoming a shut-in whose only goal was to get wasted. As questionable as many of his friends were in the early days, it seems like he only attracted predators the last few years, NAL and Warlord to name a few.

I feel like if you could go back in time to when Josh became an adult and tell him the outcome of his life, he would say, "That's fucking awesome!" I think that he craved having some type of freedom and would have much preferred his short life over living in a home medicated out of his mind and craving to be set free. Regardless, I hope he's resting well now.
