Josh Saunders, better known as “KingCobraJFS” and also sometimes simply called “Cobes”, is a self proclaimed “sexy goth bad boy” of many talents. YouTuber, streamer, guitarist, singer-songwriter, wand maker, dark wizard and harbinger of the cobrapocalypse. Once confined to obscurity, he started a slow ascent to “mild” internet fame as an amateur musician and YouTuber, and a descent into madness and alcoholism. What caused him to be this way? What’s up with him? ## Personality Josh Saunders, better known as "KingCobraJFS" or simply "Cobes," is an eccentric internet personality who proudly calls himself a "sexy goth bad boy" with an eclectic array of talents. Born on March 26, 1991, in Casper, Wyoming, Josh's early years were marked by health issues and family turbulence, including a contentious divorce and custody battle between his parents. Josh's online persona is a whirlwind of quirky behaviors and interests. He is a YouTuber, streamer, guitarist, singer-songwriter, wand maker, and self-proclaimed dark wizard. His ascent from obscurity began with his amateur music and YouTube videos, but his journey has also been marred by a descent into madness and alcoholism. **Appearance:** Josh’s appearance is as unique as his personality. He often dons goth-inspired attire, complete with band t-shirts, chains, and the occasional wizard hat. His hair, once thick and black, has thinned considerably over the years, adding to his somewhat disheveled look. His pale skin contrasts sharply with his dark wardrobe, giving him a spectral appearance that complements his gothic persona. Josh's lethargic demeanor and slow, deliberate speech only add to his distinctive presence, making him a true internet enigma. **Early Life Adventures:** Josh's early life was challenging, with respiratory distress syndrome at birth requiring an incubator. His parents' rocky divorce added to the instability, with rumors of his mother's instability and possible substance abuse. Moving through various states, Josh eventually settled back in Casper, Wyoming, where he graduated from Natrona County High School. **Family Dynamics:** Josh has two high-achieving sisters, but his relationship with his father, Clint, is more complex. Clint acknowledges something was off with Josh from the start, describing him as tormented and harassed throughout his life. Despite Josh's oddities and troubling behavior, Clint remains oddly proud of him. **High School Hijinks:** Josh's high school years were a mix of awkwardness and controversy. He briefly joined the wrestling team but quit, calling it "gay." After discovering the band Cradle of Filth, he fully embraced his goth identity. At 18, despite his respiratory issues, he started smoking, and by 21, he was drinking heavily. **Documentary Fame:** Interest in Josh spiked with the 2014 documentary "Gothic King Cobra," which showcased a day in his life and revealed bizarre details about his past, like his extensive pubic hair grooming habits. The documentary also introduced various Casper residents, including a homeless Marine who left a lasting impression on Josh with the phrase, “That’s what’s up.” **The Sagas:** Josh's life is a series of outlandish sagas, detailed on sites like Cobrapedia. From the Eviction Saga, where his smoking and spray painting caused $6,000 in damage to his apartment, to his ongoing clashes with trolls, Josh’s life is never dull. Despite being evicted, he remains undeterred, continuing his chaotic lifestyle in a new apartment. **Health and Hygiene:** Josh’s physical health is a topic of concern. He stays relatively slim despite a diet of fast food, booze, and tobacco, but his streams often feature him hacking and coughing, sometimes needing a drink by his bedside when he wakes up. His hygiene and cooking skills are questionable, with infamous cooking videos showcasing burnt and bizarre food combinations, and the occasional grease fire. **Psychological Quirks:** Josh’s mental health is complex. While he has Asperger's, his delusions of grandeur and overinflated ego suggest deeper issues. He believes himself to be a handsome, talented goth magician, though his guitar skills and magical prowess are widely ridiculed. Trolls have diagnosed him with everything from poor impulse control to oppositional defiant disorder. His social interactions often show a lack of awareness of social cues, and he struggles with understanding and responding to the emotions of others, a hallmark of his autism. **Love Life and Dry Spells:** Surprisingly, Josh has had romantic relationships. He dated Stephanie from Job Corps, which ended disastrously after a drunken escapade. Another brief relationship with a woman named Ami ended after a day, with Josh expressing satisfaction when she later ended up in jail. His romantic frustrations culminated in the arrival of a $1,000 sex doll from a fan, which Josh later destroyed in a fit of rage after a particularly vigorous session. Currently, Josh is in what he describes as a "dry spell," which has lasted for over six years. Despite his best efforts, he hasn't been able to find a girlfriend. He's on a perpetual quest for his ideal woman: an "of-age goth girl that's at least a 4/10, alive, and cisgender." His standards are oddly specific, yet he remains hopeful, convinced that his perfect goth partner is out there, somewhere. **Financial Folly:** Josh’s financial habits are as chaotic as his personal life. Despite occasional income from his wand-making business and donations from fans, he’s perpetually broke. He spends recklessly on fast food and booze, infamously blowing $1,000 in five days. His custom pizza orders, often totaling $70, exemplify his financial irresponsibility. **Catchphrases and Quirks:** Josh’s streams and videos are peppered with catchphrases like “That’s what’s up,” “Trust and believe,” and “No skin off my shoes.” His bizarre antics, from cooking disasters to nonsensical rants, make his content a surreal blend of comedy and tragedy. His frequent lack of awareness of how his actions are perceived by others and his insistence on sticking to routines and preferences despite their impracticality further illustrate his autism. Josh speaks slowly and lethargically, often reminiscent of Napoleon Dynamite. His laid-back, almost indifferent delivery of lines like "Well, anyways, YouTube, this is KingCobraJFS with another video, I'll catch you cool cobras later" adds to his unique charm. Despite his many challenges, Josh Saunders, or KingCobraJFS, remains a fascinating figure. His resilience in the face of constant trolling and his unwavering commitment to his unique lifestyle have earned him a dedicated following. Love him or hate him, there's no denying that Josh is one of the internet's most uniquely entertaining characters.
