Golden iPod
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".
Requirements for the Golden iPod Award
An Hero, 2006
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 losing his iPod and creating a new classic meme in the process, Mitchell Henderson lives on in our hearts and in our hard drives, and receives the Golden iPod Award of 2006.
2007
Nominees
- Chris Benoit
- Ben Vodden
- Broady Paul Ledet

An Winner
For performing the amazing feat of 32 * over 9000 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)(BRB Jail, Not An Hero - Epic win: Uiryeong 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. PROTIP: 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.
2009
Nominees
Disqualified
- Nidal Malik "AbduWali" Hasan - Despite Getting Forth Place on the Southeast Regional High Score Leaderboard, he hereby has been Disqualified after Æ's judges decided that paralyzation does not count as An Hero of the legs.
- David Carradine - Even though his death was self inflicted with help from an asian hooker, David Carradines death was not planned nor lulzy. Æ's judges decided that you gotta have intent to become an hero. Carradine is out.
An Winner
Tony48219 won 2009's Golden iPod Award for going on a road trip to kill a negro Boxxy for hating on his religion. He has earned the respect of his fellow man for truly standing up for what he believes in.
2010
An Winner
By default, it goes to OldDirtyBtard. Rest in peace bro.
On Saturday, October 30, OldDirtyBtard was martyred by the Pharisitic bastards at the Church of Scientology. The cause of death was labeled suicide, and the police refuse to investigate the issue further. He will be sorely missed. As ODB was a career alcoholic, over-aged EDiots (a word invented by the Captain himself) are advised to take a shot in remembrance.
