The Cobraverse, like many subcultures, has developed a unique vocabulary. This consists of characteristic utterances of Josh himself, often called Cobraisms, and other meme phrases uttered by his friends and detractors.

Cobraisms are unique phrases or mangled words frequently used by King Cobra JFS - most of them can be attributed to the boy's poor reading skills, him hearing a phrase, misunderstanding it's meaning and using it in completely inappropriate situations, or butchering an entire saying by coming with completely different sentence that doesn't make any sense. Basically imagine a character with high speech stat and low intelligence.

While few of these are so ubiquitous that they are essential vocabulary for anyone acquainted with the Cobraverse, there are many, many obscure gems that Joshua has uttered over the course of years that will make you think a second coming of Andy Kaufman has graced us his his presence.
