Josh always felt like an "Old Man of the Sea" type to me, which made it ironic given he lived in a landlocked state. I think the perception had to do in part with his obsession over canned fish and all sorts of bizarre canned and potted foods like the pork brains and escargot.

If only he'd have been born in P-town and taught to fish the seas in between drinking, whoring, doing percs, and spitting on the flamboyantly gay tourists....

Sure, he'd be all weathered and shit from the salt spray, the sun, the cold winds... and the drinking and the whoring and the pills... but maybe if he had to stay juuuuust sober enough to throw a net or drop a pot, he might have made it to fifty or beyond (a rough fifty that looks like seventy, but still).

Would he have times where he was down and out and had to drink pork brains on camera for enough scratch to buy a six-pack? Sure. But we'd also have gotten to watch him score a couple eight-balls off the local p-town mobsters when times were good and then go on fifteen hour god-like rants about gendur-relayshuns. Damn. And he'd totally fit the whole Cthulu-mythos of "people-becoming-fish-humans-in-real-time" thing.

Why'd you have to be born in the mountains, boy!?

Despite of how you felt about him when he was still alive, if he was dead for years it was because he became a hermit.

I liked him and stopped watching awhile back because it got depressing.

It was sudden in a sense that most people (myself included) thought he was going to get increasingly ill (which could have been what was happening and we didn't know about) until he either (kinda) got his shit together or dropped dead. Like, maybe he would piss blood and go the hospital and find out his kidney was failling and he would get the hemodialysis saga, or maybe he would find out his liver was shot and we would be in the "waiting for a liver transplant" saga. I thought we would get one last saga before it happened, to be honest.

Idk, the guy who was a heavy smoker, chronic alcoholic for many years, abused duster and never exercised dying doesn't seem sudden imo. He was increasingly ill for years too it's pretty clear in the vids. I'm glad there wasn't a final "saga" where he withered physically and died a painful prolonged death from organ failure while leddit kept tormenting him, he just thought he had a bad stomach and slipped away in his sleep at the age he predicted he would die and the number he had a weird obsession with. Joshtradamus magic was actually legit in the end if he didn't an hero and died "naturally ".
 
God bless the kiwis doing the hard work of uncovering the fucking freaks who took pleasure in torturing an autistic gem like cobes.


Just caught up on the highlights from the last week or so, and holy shit there are some absolute dumpster people out there.

I see what you're saying and you're not wrong, i just thought that was what was going to happen (him getting sicker and sicker), but of course i would be ecstatic if Cobra recovered and started to take care of himself, i liked the Boglim a lot - like many people here - and i didn't think we would see him going so soon, to be completely honest.
Like, even as an alcoholic and a heavy smoker, he was only 34, that's WAY TOO YOUNG to die of a heart attack, even as an alkie, smoker and a boglim.

I blame the eveclear donations his poo touchers gave him. I think he would be still alive today if it weren't for those faggots. His content was kino when not fucked around with. Loved how Aaron and him had a good time when NAL the witch was being trying to stream while those two were making good laughs.

What’s sad is he used to exercise daily in the first apartment at least. He would do like 100 push-ups and 100 sit-ups every day. His diet was always the same: Fast food and greasy messes, but the exercise helped keep him from getting fat. Then one day, he just stopped working out and that’s when he started gaining weight, and it really started to affect his health.

I’m honestly amazed he didn’t gain a lot more weight from his atrocious diet and lack of exercise the past couple years. The boy truly had a gifted metabolism.
 
Is there actually any hard evidence of how often people sent him strong alcohol? I imagine it was only a small number of people who ever sent him anything regularly. I can't believe anyone has the money to send Everclear to him every day like I've seen people saying.

I'm not talking about stuff like people sending him snake themed beers to his P.O. box in a care package. That's not that bad. I mean hard alcohol.

one of the old reddits used to be filled with people bragging about sending him the hard stuff and taking pictures of for proof. i think some people still did it in the facebook groups but i am not sure. when he used to go live more he would usually get at least one delivery of alcohol per stream i dont know how bad it got once he moved to the trailer since he rarely went live after that but from what we have seen from other videos he was getting a pretty steady amount though i do think many of the usual suspects gave up when he stopped going live as often since their goal was to get him as drunk as possible on stream.
 
What did Cobes do with his spare time off camera? Did he ever go into detail on what his average day was like? Did he just drink, smoke, eat, and take naps? Did he watch shows and movies?

I'm weirded out by the realization that I have never seen him talk about video games. Was he just not a gamer? Its pretty shocking that a guy like Cobra in the modern age wouldn't be spending copious amounts of time on video games. If that's the case, the man was really oldschool. He was living like some kind of reclusive Vietnam vet in the 70s.
 
He would watch Family Guy clips and right wing grifter youtubers all day. He had his PS4 and a bunch of games, and seemed to be at least familiar with the controls for GTA V and some Call of Duty game that he played on stream.

He was wasted 24/7 screaming at inanimate objects. Probably just sat there listening to music smoking , drinking, raging, checking out girls, maybe occasionally doing drugs.

was that fat though, really looked like edema from all the alcohol. sometimes he looked more bloated than others, especially the last year, he'd fluctuate from bloated to extremely bloated

It wasn't even a PS4, it was a PS3. If I had to guess I'd say that he had mostly grown out of actively playing video games by about 2012-2013 based on what we see on his game stream from 2022. I know fans had sent him stuff like Fallout 3 but he probably never even opened them.

Something I remember is that in a video from only a few years ago he mentioned something about "gwiefing" in Minecraft. So maybe he watched Minecraft let's plays. lol

Always wanted to really know this, but you probably were pretty close. Once the rotgut/bottom shelf vodka started being regularly stocked, I think it was waking up and immediately drinking to stop the shakes/withdrawals or curb a hangover, then getting drunker and drunker while watching YT videos until he passed out, rinse (metaphorically) and repeat. There was a pretty bad blackout meltdown video one night (late second apartment era) and like six hours later he just uploaded another drink combo without even mentioning the extremely large and violent elephant that was previously rampaging in the room.

I think, as others have speculated, he probably wasn't eating regularly and really only having one big meal/doordash because his stomach was constantly unsettled or he was too drunk to care about eating. Some of the doordash orders from this year he would only eat a small portion and save for later, I think it was the Angel Reese combo video that made me feel sad because it seemed like he was physically struggling to eat but was still pouring those absurd 6+ shot drinks.

Fucking sucks to look back on things like this. I'm sure someone has recommended it in this thread at some point, but Leaving Las Vegas is a tremendous book if anyone wants to read about the horrors of alcoholism and suicide idealization. It was partially an autobiography, too, so there's not a whole lot of romanticized bullshit (the movie is much more palatable, but I don't mean that as a compliment).

Here's a random little video because this was a bit bleak:
