Editing Drew Pickles Goes To

'''Drew Pickles Goes To''' (also known as '''Goes To''' videos) is a series of [[Speakonia]] videos and are some of the most common videos from the community since roughly the late 2000s to early 2010s. In these videos, [[Drew Pickles]] goes to a random establishment (either real or fictional) and proceeds to enact his usual brand of swell shenanigans.

== Format ==
The Goes To videos stick with a very clear and cut format that has rarely changed in the time of it's inception, with a few exceptions.

*The video opens up with Drew introducing himself and telling the viewers where he will be going to today. Sometimes he will provide context to where he is going or explain his reasons for going there. In some rare instances, he will bring along one of or more of his fellow [[The Barney Bunch (fictional)|Barney Bunch]] members.
*If Drew is going to a fictional location (like one from a TV show or video game), he will just jump into the television screen and end up there. If he is traveling back in time, he will either go to a time machine store to get a time machine as seen in older videos, or he will use his one of a kind time machine dialdoh line in more recent videos.
*When Drew arrives at the place, he will be caught up in a really really long line. Originally the lines consisted of racial stereotypes, though later Goes To videos appear to have toned them down to fairly generic ones.
*After waiting in the line for what seems like a specific amount of time or for something impossible to happen, Drew will become bored or pissed off and he will make his way through the line by having sex with all the men there or masturbate to a wild sexual fantasy. In the case of the latter, someone will catch him in the act of masturbating and tell him off before they get fucked (or smacked if they are a woman).
*If any women are present in the video, depending on the creator, Drew will either kill them by smacking them to death with his penis or knock them out.
*If Drew is at a restaurant or anywhere that serves food, he will request a disgusting meal made out of excrement, semen, and other bodily fluids. The person who is at the counter will get disgusted and refuse to serve his order, to which Drew then fucks them and makes the order himself.
*Drew will use anything and everything as dildus.
*The 4th wall gets broken almost every single video, and Drew even uses the shattered pieces as dildus.
*Drew dislikes being called a "sick fuck", and will show anyone who calls him that the true definition of one without mercy.
*Towards the end of the video, the manager of the establishment (or anyone similar) will step out of their office and say the iconic line "What the fuck is going on here?!" Drew then explains that he was turning the place very swell and renames it into something vaguely inappropriate and swell. The manager then gets pissed off and goes on a rant, telling Drew to get out of the establishment or else they will call the cops, to which Drew responds by having sex with them.
*Drew finally says that the whole thing will be very swell, with various gross and swell words accompanying it until declaring that he is going to do all of it right now. He then says goodbye to the viewers and the video ends.

Very rarely has this format changed in the years since the first Goes To video was made. However, sometimes the format is changed, such as one of the patrons engaging in the same acts as Drew, or that the manager is a woman, but it isn't as frequent as one would expect. The only exceptions to this would have to be [[Drew Pickles Goes To Hell]] by BakaSurvivor2102 and the videos by [[Thirteeniverse]], which are some of the very few Goes To videos not done in the traditional format.

== History ==
According to community member [[Blood]], the first Drew Pickles Goes To video was created on [[YouTube]] by PieMaster64 around 2007, but unfortunately the video is now considered lost. 2008 and 2009 would see a massive spike in Goes To Videos, with users like HappyTheHomo45, Latinoballa23, YTComedyChannel365, bonerificisswell, [[ToiletPranker]], OptionalLoser, and [[BarneyBunchCompany]] (originally named SRRRSIsGay) having pioneered the genre.

=== Peak and Eventual Decline ===
Towards the end of 2009 and well into 2010, two members of the community, [[MrCaptainJeff]] and [[DrewPicklesAintDed69]], were some of, if not the most prolific, creators of Goes To videos, with their content being held in high regard to this very day. Both their channels would end up being suspended numerous times in the early 2010s until they were permanently terminated off YouTube, leading to countless tribute videos and all but a handful of their original videos becoming lost. Later members like [[DJSwell69]] and [[ShelltoonTV1]] continued the tradition by making them even longer, wittier, and more complex, even going more over the top than usual. It got to a point where other characters, like [[Yogi Bear]], [[Betty DeVille]], [[Stu Pickles]], [[Nega Drew Pickles]], and even [[Drew Pickles Jr.]] began starring in their own brand of Goes To videos with a similar setup, a practice that continues to this very day.

However, by the mid to late 2010s, towards the start of the first [[Barney Bunch Renaissance|Renaissance]] era, the videos were not held in the same high regard by the more high-ranking members of the community. Blood and [[Life Or Death]] have been very vocal with their criticisms of the videos, stating that they were completely different originally, with the homosexual shenanigans took center stage, but were gradually becoming more racist and lacked many of the swell shenanigans. The sharper writing of later entries also proved a challenge to less-experienced content creators, who would turn out low effort videos. The format was also becoming more repetitive, with the only thing Drew doing was just having gay sex with men and eating poopycum, and not going to the extremes as in prior videos. Even founding community members on YouTube such as [[BooNube]] shared a disdain for the Goes To videos as far back as 2011. This, combined with the rise of the [[Blood-style videos]], lead to many veteran members ditching the Goes To style of videos in favor of the [[Blood-style videos|Blood-style]], and many of them disregarding the Goes To videos as a past phase.

=== Rebirth? ===
Despite the Blood-style videos being the preferred way of making Speakonia content to some members of the community, by the tail-end of the [[Second Barney Bunch Renaissance|Second Renaissance]], the style began to wane, and the Goes To videos suddenly saw a small resurgence among the community once again. Users such as Defpickles98 and [[IronYoshi1212 Productions|IronYoshi1212]] continued to create Goes To videos to this very day. IronYoshi in particular has changed the format a little, replacing the racial stereotypes with more generic ones fitting for the location, and even veterans of the genre have slowly started to come back to making them again such as [[DrewPicklesTheDark]], Satinsguard, and even HappyTheHomo45. Thirteeniverse would take the Goes To formula to its next level, combing the fast pace editing style of [[SwellFusion]] and the [[The Foot Fetish Community|Foot Fetish Community]] with the more story-driven elements of IronYoshi and taking the style in a new and fresh direction.

== Hall of Fame ==
While they were not as revered as they once were, a handful of Goes To videos have managed to withstand the tests of time and become classics among the community.
