It fucks with me that I recently learned that nearly 90% of heart attacks are survivable if treatment arrives fast enough. If people really did call in a wellness check, and the paramedics didn't show because they had received too many previous false reports to that address, heads need to roll.

i thought about that before myself and i think he would have been done either way. the report makes it sound like cobes died almost a few minutes to an hour before clint got there. so the heart attack he had was pretty major and even if he got wellness checked i dont think they could have gotten to him in time. the only thing that could have saved him i think is if he was going live more often in general.

with how sick he was he seemed to be more willing to explain his symptoms and i think that could have gotten somebody who he trusts to tell him he needs to go to the hospital NOW rather than waiting it out. but then again this is cobes we are talking about and we all know he would have fought to the end not to go to the hospital and would have told any cops that showed up he was fine and did not need anything before dropping dead the second they leave and he closes the door.

While I wouldn't say that Cobes had a death wish, I don't think he gave a shit one way or the other. His existence was just that, an existence. Imagine being in your 30s and accepting that was all your life was ever going to be and not even wanting to get any more out of it. Yes he was a beloved figure on the internet (he had no idea HOW beloved), but really, his day-to-day life was pretty sad.

He’s basically the lolcow version of Van Gogh.

Buddy came down a few weeks ago for my birthday.
Brought the wife and I custom shirts he made.

Black, grey and white tie-dye. Killer font "JFS" on the front over the heart.
On the back, a solid black silhouette of our dark lord's Mugshot. And the words "HAVE YOU DREAMED OF THIS MAN?" framing it. Those two shirts are some of my prized possessions now.
I miss him daily, Cobros.

What stage of grief are you at right now fellow YouTubers. Me? I’m feeling kinda angry now. Just thinking of all the little thugs that snowballed until we hit this point.

You'll have to forgive the quality, my daily is a CAT S22 flip.
He says that he won't make more than the two for wife and I, but he'll give me the files to pass on if anyone wants to make their own.

Still hard stuck in Denial and Bargaining. I would trade all of Josh' content and all of us genuine fans if it means the boglim is still alive and Clint somehow managed to spirit him away to a facility (dare I say group home) to get him clean and sober. His rotten maw has been fixed and is currently still healing, while the boy whittles away at a new wand that's going up on etsy under a new pseudonym.

That celebration of life really punched me hard in the gut and almost did a 180 on my opinion of Josh. I wouldn't say I hated the boy prior to his death but he had his moments of being quite easy to loathe or despise, so Clint, Tannis and the sister all sharing these wonderful nuggets of pure familial love for a man who encapsulates that Hunter S. Thompson quote perfectly really affected me.
Without PL'ing, I want my life to get better. For Josh. For myself. For my family. I don't want to end up like him. I'm nowhere near what the boy became but he really opened my eyes to how important taking care of yourself is. Neglecting dental health, drinking yourself into oblivion and in general treating yourself poorly is not the way to go about things. We all deserve better fates than how Josh ended his life. Or even any of the homeboys and homegals who orbited Cobes. What miserable existences.

I've been at acceptance since at least prior to the Celebration of Life. I don't have to like it, but it's the truth.

I've found myself using a lot more Cobraisms than I ever would in real life. I caught myself saying "no skin off my shoes" to a coworker when they were complaining about having to work on Monday.

my very first exposure to Dr Who was the weird American film with Doctor 8. Then a thousands years later I saw this episode standalone, it brought me to tears. I started watching Dr Who after that. Until when they made everything thats ever happened sooo important and brought back Van Gogh sobbing after painting the Police Box being blown up.

The Celebration of Life gave me a lot of the closure I needed. I'm forever indebted to Clint for that.

i wish i felt the same. for me having closure when someone suddenly dies is impossible. i can accept their passing, but i will never feel like there was closure. their story, while finished, is still in a way incomplete. i had his random videos in the background as noise even before he died, but since his death this has doubled - so much so that it is impossible for me to not have at least one random video from his channel on my yt homepage when i refresh it. and i will click it and proceed with my day while he rants or cooks in the background. and it'll just keep me reminded that hes not here. but IT IS WHAT IT IS TOOBZ.

which leads me to this - itagaki, the creator of DOA and longtime head of the Ninja Gaiden franchise passed away today. he left behind a farewell message which IMMEDIATELLY reminded me of josh

series of battles
stayed winning
caused trouble
stood by his beliefs
no ragrets
only sorry for his fans
it is what it is
 
Sad because Ghost Adventures just started a new season (yes I watch this goofy show) and they started with a 2 part special all in Casper WY. They even go to Crimson Dawn, I remember hearing that name from Cobra videos but I don't remember if he ever filmed anything there. Sad that Cobes can't watch this. Hell he should have been interviewed for it, they talked to local "witches".
 
I don't know if it's posted here yet but I reall lke this vids...
