Stu Pickles

Stu Pickles is the younger brother of Drew Pickles and a popular character among the off-branch of the Speakonia Community known as the Foot Fetish Community, as well as being the leader of the Ketchum Klan.

History
Contrary to what one may think, Stu has actually been a major character in early Barney Bunch content since the late 2000s. He was always depicted as being just as gay as his older brother, but sometime during the early 2010s, he quickly morphed into a bisexual foot fetishist, which caused some minor drama within the community, particularly during the first Barney Bunch Renaissance. Stu's voice in videos tends to change time and again as well. In older Barney Bunch videos, he was usually voiced by Microsoft Sam, but the use of Adult Male #7 by bigboyrats grew to be his definitive voice, as well as Adult Male #3.

Outside the Barney Bunch, Stu has become a popular meme among the Internet, mainly through him making chocolate pudding at 4 in the morning.

Depiction Controversy
Stu was always portrayed as a homosexual in early Barney Bunch content during the late 2000s, being on almost equal footing (no pun intended!) with his brother Drew. Some jokes were thrown around about him being bisexual and leaving the fictional Barney Bunch, but they were never really taken seriously. It wouldn't be until November 26, 2011 that it would finally manifest when FiletOfSole1 posted Stu Pickles Goes To Sailor Moon & InuYahsha (which is possibly the first and only surviving video from that time) that fully embraced Stu as being a bisexual who loved feet. He would later be indoctrinated into the new group known as the Ketchum Klan as their leader.

As the Foot Fetish Community began to grow and their videos become more popular, many members would quickly accept this new version of Stu as canon, without considering the original depiction the Barney Bunch had for the character. The one instance where this came to a head was in 2013, when prominent Foot Fetish Community member BeefStuu92 commented on one of Blood's Stu Pickles videos, informing him of Stu's recent change of characterization. Blood simply blew this off with a three word comment of "lol f**k off". As of today, the reply has long been deleted, though BeefStuu's comment still remains.

Things wouldn't take a heel turn until 2016, at the start of the first Barney Bunch Renaissance, with the emergence of a user named FNAF Fanboy Exterminator. This user was infamous for spamming far too many video requests onto users, demanding that a user remake a video where one character was excluded from the long list of butt buddies and good men (as happened with Skewt), and generally acting as if the rest of the community were their personal workhorses, while he himself made Speakonia videos on characters from defunct Chuck E Cheese-like establishment Showbiz Pizza that completely missed the point of the Barney Bunch. But most of all, he acted as if bisexual Stu was an inflexible rule that was always true and that any depiction of Stu as homosexual, perhaps even those that were made before the Foot Fetish Community existed, were invalid and that Stu was always bisexual and a foot fetishist.

Needless to say, there was an immediate backlash from the community, who saw FNAF Fanboy Exterminator as a wannabe who didn't understand the Barney Bunch or its members. His channel would eventually close in June 2016, but he ended up returning shortly after under the username The Wife of The Glorious Hen Known as Helen Henny. Despite his return, he would stay out of affairs and disappear completely by the Renaissance's end. To this day, the depiction of Stu continues to switch back and forth depending on the user, with many veteran BB members keeping Stu as exclusively gay, while many others keep him as a bisexual foot lover.
