Golden iPod
From Encyclopedia Dramatica
The Golden iPod Award is given to one person who managed to become an hero (i.e. commit suicide) in a lulzy way and bring joy to the interwebs. There can only be one Golden iPod each year, and the competition is very tough. The first person ever to receive an Golden iPod was Mitchell Henderson, for his drama-inducing self-pwnage and subsequent posthumous pioneering of the phrase "an hero".

For becoming the first person to receive the An Hero title and for bringing many lulz to the internets. Mitchell showed us that death does not have to be sad, but could in fact be quite hilarious.

For performing the amazing feat of 32 kills (33 31 if you count his self-pwning; suicide penalty, lulz), a high score which has yet to be broken learn to history (Port Arthur massacre). But also for spawning major drama, lulz, and controversy on the interwebs. Cho also posted a tape of himself making lulzy threats, which has become a famed and legendary video. Mr. Seung-Hui even became a meme, and even today, there are still people posting his image on the web.
2008
Nominees
- Codey "Code Red" Porter
- Hannah "Black Parade" Bond
- Megan "Bulling Is Rabbit" Meier
- Jake "An Wii-ro" Roberts
- Joshua "An Halo" Nimm
- Matti "The Finnisher" Saari
- Shaun "GET ON WITH IT?" Dykes
- Abraham "Candyjunkie" Biggs
- Bruce "Satan Claus" Pardo
Disqualified nominees
- Heath Ledger -- He overdosed by accident, he never meant to become an hero. His OD wasn't even worth a darwin award, unlike Codey Porter.
- Brandon Crisp -- He had a luzly brawl with his parents, like Jake "An Wii-ro" Roberts, but he did not run out in the woods to kill himself. He fell from a tree by accident, which is a unfunny death. Brandon Crisp was disqualified even though he is popular and did bring many lulz to the internets and a specific image board. If Brandon jumped from a cliff or hanged himself from that tree, he could have won the game.
- Sam Leeson -- Even though he spawned some lulz on 4chan and Bebo, he was nominated too late. Next time: nominate people before the voting starts.
An Winner
Bruce Jeffrey Pardo has won 2008's Golden iPod Award for the incredibly lulzy task of dressing up like Santa Claus on Christmas eve, knocking on his in-laws' door while they were having a Christmas party, and shooting an 8 year old girl in the face when she answered. He subsequently went on to pwn 9 people in all, including himself, but not before burning the house down with a flamethrower. The only explanation possible for this act is that he was extremely horny? Bruce Jeffrey Pardo was an amazing individual, but not least of all, he was An Hero.
