The Dudo509 Blogspot Awards

In light of the recent MTV Video Music Awards (which I caught pieces of, and from what I saw, really sucked), I have decided to hand out some awards of my own for various categories. No, there is no physical trophy or monetary value to winning a DBA, but the prestige alone should be way more than enough incentive. That is, everyone wants to win one so they can tell people that they got a DBA. With DBA status, it is not uncommon for one to find himself/herself getting into clubs for free, for police officers to not issue you tickets in minor infraction, and to get personal phone calls from the President and Britney Spears.

The following are the categories and nominees. I will announce the winners at a later date.

Disclaimer: Do NOT email me to complain if someone/something you like was not nominated or does not win. Make your own awards.
