 Josh was, at one point, an interesting young man. He had aspirations beyond his means, goals that he incrementally moved towards in his own strange ways. Every year presented a new saga and a new chapter in his life, fraught with strange characters and even stranger twists. He placed some measure of effort into the things he did, be it his beloved bicycle, his dummy Shon or his music career. He was more confidence yet more aware of his faults, not afraid to admit he had them. Josh was an interesting guy by all accounts and the Trappped documentary showcases this perfectly. Josh was, at one point, an interesting young man.

-**Josh isn't that person anymore.** Josh is now a balding 30-something who has neither the confidence nor the passion to pursue anything, much less a woman. His life is at a virtual standstill, Josh applies no effort to finding a job or pursuing any form of education, he spends his days eating copious amounts of fast food and drinking himself to death at all hours of the day. His passions lay dormant in his apartment, gathering dust from a bygone era. //His source of money, wand making, literally grows on trees and he still can't be bothered to put in the effort.// Josh wants to literally do nothing all day.+**Josh isn't that person anymore.** Josh is now a balding 30-something who has neither the confidence nor the passion to pursue anything, much less a woman.

-**No.** Josh has been on YouTube for close to __fifteen years__ and for every year, he has been trolled. Whatever plan you have to troll Josh, he's already seen it and it's not going to work. Your plan isn't fresh or new, Josh has suffered it before or is so wary of trolling efforts that he'll see it coming a mile away, if his white knights haven't already. Keeping in mind how futile the effort is, the only person who can truly and effectively troll Josh is Josh. Josh is, unfortunately for him, his own worst enemy and will routinely ruin his own plans and the plans of others, suffering almost no consequences. You can't beat Josh at his own game, so don't try. Just let him exist and do the work for you.+**No.** Josh has been on YouTube for close to __fifteen years__ and for every year, he has been trolled.

-The term Boglim is a fan-made Cobraism of the intentionally gross Boglin toys from the 1990s, which exemplify who Josh is: A slimy, gross, and generally undesirable creature that people still spend money on.+The phrase "Boglim" comes from a feud between once-friend-now-nemesis [[characters:CoolTaste]]. During one of the feuds, CoolTaste attempted to type "Cobra is a goblin" in a comment. However, as CoolTaste's vision is basically on par with a mole's, this would be misspelled as "Cobra is a boglim". And thus, the meme was born.

-Due to Josh's lack of general accountability for anything he does and his Aspergers, at many moments he has the sensibility of a teenager. He's cognizant enough to recognize what he's doing to himself and completely able to understand that he's at fault internally. He will even admit as such initially or when he's intoxicated. Publicly however, he will go to any lengths to blame anyone and anything that isn't him in any scenario, regardless of how ridiculous the excuse may be. Beyond that, Josh views the world through the lies he's created to justify it.+Due to Josh's lack of general accountability for anything he does and his Asperger's, at many moments he has the sensibility of a teenager.

 Josh also has Bipolar I Disorder. During his childhood, he maintained a proper schedule of medication and he attended counseling regularly. He was, as his father said, doing quite fine until the age of 18-21, where he dropped all of his medication and therapy in favor of self-medication with substance abuse. It's clear Josh has had a cognitive decline, what's not clear is if this is the cause for it. Josh has subjected himself to years and years of substance abuse, fumes, a sedentary lifestyle and a lack of education. Josh also has Bipolar I Disorder.

-**We don't know, but probably not.** Asperger's Syndrome and Schizophrenia are both disorders of neurodevelopmental origin with prominent genetic factors. In fact, they are often misdiagnosed as the other due to their overlapping symptoms. It's likely that Josh has Asperger's Syndrome and due to his reluctance to seek proper treatment it has steady become much worse. Josh has self-medicated with marijuana and marijuana substitutes for over a decade, he has slowly become a more worse alcoholic and has spend significant amounts of time around spray paint fumes without any sort of respiratory protection, which has likely rapidly accelerated his already deep decline cognitively.+**We don't know, but probably not.** Asperger's Syndrome and Schizophrenia are both disorders of neurodevelopmental origin with prominent genetic factors.

 ==== Is Josh an Incel? ==== ==== Is Josh an Incel? ====
  
 **Formally, no.** Josh doesn't claim to be an incel and doesn't entirely meet the criteria. He's more akin to a **Nice Guy™,** someone who will ingratiate themselves among women by pandering to them with female-specific issues. This is done explicitly for the purposes of becoming "friends" with women and ultimately having sex with them. This is more academically known as The Sneaky Fucker Theory, a term coined by evolutionary biologist John Maynard Smith to describe subordinate males who take advantage of the opportunity to mate with females while dominant males are otherwise occupied, leading to their reproductive success. **Formally, no.** Josh doesn't claim to be an incel and doesn't entirely meet the criteria.

 **No,** but people imply otherwise to troll him and have trolled him with alleged under-age female accounts. Due to an event earlier in his life involving a young female lying about her age and Josh subsequently and quickly ending that brief relationship, Josh is now very explicit about not accidentally dating or sexually conversing with minors. It's entirely the reason why he always specifies adult woman as "of-age women." **No,** but people imply otherwise to troll him and have trolled him with alleged under-age female accounts.

 +In particular, trolls like to reference the 2020 movie "Cuties" to Josh, insinuating that he's secretly a fan. This started because of the (rightfully placed) disgust that Josh expressed towards the movie. There have been no instances where he insinuated in any way that he liked the movie.

-**Surprisingly, yes. Several times, in fact.** His exact body count is estimated at 6 - Stephanie, Kayla, Judy, Ami, Summer, and Jessica.

 **Clint's trying his best with an ungrateful manchild.** There really isn't a simple answer to this question, despite what many people in the Cobraverse will tell you. Clint has shown time and again that he's willing to learn more about his son's shortcomings and generally help him move forwards in life, despite Josh's best efforts to be as lazy as possible.  **Clint's trying his best with an ungrateful manchild.** There really isn't a simple answer to this question, despite what many people in the Cobraverse will tell you.

-From a factual standpoint, Clint has won a custody battle for a young Josh from his allegedly abusive ex-wife, quit his job to study his son's mental illnesses, saved him from a homeless shelter after Job Corps kicked him out, helped him move multiple times, keeps tabs on his son's activity, replaced his smashed BC Rich Warlock guitar when Josh smashed it in a violent rage, helped him make wands on his lathe, helped budget his funds during questionable purchase decisions(like pressuring him into not buying a SIX HUNDRED DOLLAR RAILROAD BELL), bought him his trailer, and generally been a silent partner in many of Josh's larger undertakings. If that makes Clint a bad dad, then we don't know what makes a good one.+From a factual standpoint, Clint has won a custody battle for a young Josh from his allegedly abusive ex-wife, quit his job to study his son's mental illnesses, saved him from a homeless shelter after Job Corps kicked him out, helped him move multiple times, keeps tabs on his son's activity, replaced his BC Rich Warlock guitar when Josh smashed it in a violent rage, helped him make wands on his lathe, helped budget his funds during questionable purchase decisions(like pressuring him into not buying a SIX HUNDRED DOLLAR RAILROAD BELL), bought him his trailer, and generally been a silent partner in many of Josh's larger undertakings.

-**The last thing Josh needs is more authority figures telling him what to do.** Josh is proven to be at least mildly self-sufficient - in the same way a non-lethal poisonous mushroom could be considered "mildly edible" - and it's very likely this would destroy any and all rapport Clint has worked to build up with Josh in the last 15 years. \\+**Clint cannot legally put Josh in a group home without his consent, and Josh will never want to be in one.**

 More importantly, there's no way the amount of masturbation, drugs, and rock n' roll that Josh does would ever fly in a group home. He would be more likely kicked out for blasting Ozzy Osbourne at 3 in the morning for a week straight and drunkenly howling at inanimate objects before 6 months had passed. More importantly, there's no way the amount of masturbation, drugs, and rock n' roll that Josh does would ever fly in a group home.
