History WebVideo / DrewGooden

* TooDumbToFool: In most of Drew's "I bought every weird ad" series of videos, he normally buys whatever he sees regardless of its quality or legitimacy. In "No one can stop me from buying weird ads (not even you)", however, he notices that an ad for a plug-in energy-saving device is a fraud, and decides to make a parody of the ad instead.

Drew Gooden (born October 26, 1993) is a comedy Website/{{Vine}}r turned Website/{{YouTube}}r, whose content mostly focuses on commentary and humor.

* BerserkButton: ''The Moonpod,'' a beanbag chair he bought in one of the "buying every advertised product series." Expensive, uncomfortable, and made by a company that deletes every negative review of their product, Drew goes out of his way to insult the Moonpod whenever he can. Even the word "pod" triggers bad memories.

* TooIncompetentToOperateABlanket: Parodied in "No one can stop me from buying weird ads (not even you)". After seeing a scam ad, Drew makes a parody where an 11-year old called David Tinkle ([[RankedByIQ who has a "perfect" 100 IQ score]]) invents a wearable inflatable cushion after continuously falling and breaking his bones.

* BrakeAngrily: One Vine parodied this trope, ''not even using a car''; Drew was sprinting past his girlfriend, Amanda, who tried to get his attention. When she claimed she'd give him a kiss, he immediately "slammed the breaks", complete with a tire-screeching sound, all just to reject her offer.

* TakeOurWordForIt: While on [[WebOriginal/TinyMeatGang Cody Ko]]'s podcast, Drew insists that Amanda is one of the funniest people he knows. Unfortunately by his admission, she's also not that good enough of an actress to showcase this so his claims are stuck as this.

* SelfDeprecation: Drew likes to make fun of himself a lot, such as claiming he's never had a first kiss before despite being in his twenties and married, just to paint himself as a loser.

* BeserkButton: ''The Moonpod.''

* MondegreenGag: He mishears a lyric from the opening song to a video guide to the internet from TheNineties as "sex-free". The comments point out that the singer actually sang "set us free", which they argue MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext.

* NostalgiaAintLikeItUsedToBe: In "I watched one SNL episode from every season," Drew challenges the popular notion that ''Series/SaturdayNightLive'' hasn't been funny since the 1990s by watching an episode from every ''SNL'' season up to 2021. He concludes that ''SNL'' has always been a mix of funny and unfunny, and the only reason people's memories are biased towards the older seasons is because they've been preserved as "Best Of" compilations and reruns [[invoked]]EditedForSyndication that cut out the least funny content from the episode. Drew also affirms Creator/LorneMichaels' theory that people always think the best ''SNL'' era is the one that aired when they were a teenager, which is the 2006-2012 era in his case... and even when rewatching that season in his marathon, he comes across some dud sketches that he forgot.

* ExpositoryHairstyleChange: In "I took Ninja's Masterclass and it ruins my life", Drew attempts to replicate Ninja's blue hair by dying it, hoping that it will make him stand out as a streamer. It doesn't work, and his one viewer mocks it.

* AutopilotArtistry: In "I bought every weird ad I saw for a month", Drew buys a product that covers your eyes and is meant to help you play basketball better. He launches into a skit where he's hopeless at getting any shots when looking, but suddenly becomes a basketball pro while using "Hand In Yo Face", eventually taking his playing to the next level- the NBA, where he won the championship for over forty years in a row on every single team, in a gag referencing the ''[[NamesTheSame other]]'' [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drew_Gooden Drew Gooden]].

* CutawayGag: Many of his mid-video skits involve unrelated jokes and non-sequitur comedy, before transitioning right back into the normal video. For instance, in one video he referenced needing to ask his landlord about installing a bidet. Cue the landlord bursting in to tell him his dishwasher is broken while refusing to do it, followed by him explaining that his name is Ninja [[NamedAfterSomebodyFamous after the ''Fortnite'' streamer]]. Drew asks how old he is, and he quickly leaves the conversation, before promptly falling down the stairs. Drew awkwardly resumes the video as if nothing happened.

* TooIncompetentToOperateABlanker: Parodied in "No one can stop me from buying weird ads (not even you)".
