Mike Florio comes out to the podium.  "Now we are presenting the First ever, Amiright lifetime achivement award.  The first ever recipient of this award is someone that this site knows very well.  Here to Give this award to its winner is Junior"

Junior comes out:
"In the beginning of amIright, there were only a handful of writers that submitted parodies here. One of those men was Sean, or S.T.G.
S.T.G's big breakthrough came with his parody of 90s rock band Soundgarden's hit, "Black Hole Sun", called "Wacked Up Gun". Little did Sean know how big he would influence the amIright community over the next three years.

A month after S.T.G's "Wacked Up Gun", controversy arose. S.T.G and fellow amIright parody artist DarkJon64 began to argue after finding that they had parodies with the same name, on the same subject, on the same song. S.T.G's "Supersized" vs. DJ's "Supersize" was big news at amIright.

Luckily, S.T.G and DJ came to an agreement and settled their differences. In fact, they ended up becoming friends and ended up joining together on parodies, including "Good/Bad Conscience".

Meanwhile, S.T.G. hit more highs in 2000 with "Fried Chicken", a parody of "Big Pimpin'"; "Blue (Steve And Magenta)", a parody of Eiffel 65's "Blue"; "Highway Grammar", parodying Nelly's "Country Grammar"; "Bowlin'", a parody of Limp Bizkit's "Rollin'"; and probably his biggest hit of the year, "Everybody (Backstreet Sucks)".

On July 8th, S.T.G set one of his many records, by doing the first three-man parody along with DarkJon and myself. It was titled "Road Trip" to pop-punk band Sum41's "Fat Lip".

In 2001, S.T.G hit his most definitely biggest hit with "The Bong Song", a parody of the ever so popular "Thong Song". Currently, it is listed on the top 10 on the amIright charts.

In 2002, S.T.G teamed with many groups of artists, for the 7-man parody, and for the "Stairway To Heaven" and "What's Going On" parodies.

S.T.G has been maintaining his awesome reputation as a parody artist, putting out awesome new parodies every day. He is an inspiration of many here in the amIright community."
And now here is the winner of the first ever amiright lifetime achivement award, the one and only, STG!

STG comes out to podium...the crowd is appauding rapidly:
"Well, to start things off I wanted to thank all the people who have voted for my parodies throughout these years on the site. Second, I want to thanks these certain people.
     Lebeiw, I really didn't know you at the beginning of AmIRight, but when you and I did the duet and trio parody I found a very good friend. I wish you more great parody hits, and a great life.
     DarkJon64, you and I did have a quarrel at the beginning, but in the end we made some great duets.
     Junior, you began being a fan of me, and now I have to say I am a fan your work. Thanks for helping out with those cold streaks of mine.
     William Tong, we never made a duet or trio, but when that Allstars parody came along you assisted with your words, and that parody spent awhile at number one. Thanks.
     Ghetto John, you have been a devoted fan, and I believe you have a promising future as a big parody artist, whatever you put on I'll be voting.
     Billy Florio, we've been pretty good friends ever since the beginning of this wonderful site. I hope we continue on being good friends for a long time.
     Mike Florio, you are crazy, but in a good way. I like your parodies, and you are a pretty good friend. With Billy, I hope we stay good friends.
  Last but not least, Chucky. You were the one who started this site. Without it I would not have had a great time as a parody artist. With your help I made a number one song, and many other hits. Thank you very much.
     To all I forgot, thank you for your support, kindness, and your votes. Peace out! "

The crowd appaulds rapidly and STG sits down

Music act: All star parody artists doing "What's going on" {nominated for best parody}        

Thank you and good night, and congrats        

Gosh... er.. .um... well, unaccustomed as I am to public speaking, I'd like to begin with saying how unexpected this award is... well, obviously I expected to win one: the "Best Phil Alexander parody" was a bit of a giveaway on that front (and "Bare Celebrities", one of my favourites, too - thanks for voting that one)... but best Whatfreaks parody too: goes to show what a sick little mind I have, I guess... but "Be My Guest" is another of my favourite parodies (I'd love to record it, but it'd need a whole cast... the video would be fun, too ;-)) and what can I say?  But "Best parody artist"?  Looks like my scheme of hacking into Billy's Hotmail account and deleting everybody else's voting emails must have worked <oops>!

Many thanks to all who voted, especially all who voted for me and my songs.

Phil

Congratulations to everyone who won.  And I hope everyone enjoyed my performance of Talk Nerdy To Me  ;D

:o

I won again!? Ultimate coolness!

*looks backstage to see the two tall men glaring at him*

Um...thanks to...um...everyone.

*quickly runs off stage*

Wow!
I'm so glad I won one. I feel that it's good that I wasn't nominated for best parody artist. Well, like Eminem I shall be back.Thanx for the votes and friendships.

how did you guys like the format that I put this out in by the way?  Did you like the idea of having it just like a real awards show with the presenters and the music....Id like to know if the two hours I spent doing it were worth it lol...

and Phil, we used the special amirightawards account for this lol...its in yahoo

Thanks for putting it all together, Florio crew.  I thought the format was very creative and a good way to make it seem a bit "climactic."  Thanks to all those who voted for the awards, I'm pumped that we got a couple!

hey i call for a second round!!! another one lol...

Congratulations to all of the winners, all of whom were deserving and some of whom I voted for.

To my co-presenter, Jeremy Otto, let me say that it was an honor to present the winner of category 3 with you.

Quoting:
Catorgory 3: Best computer parody
Presenters: John Jenkins and Jeremy Otto
End Quote

Thanks to Mike and Billy for facilitating the event!  Your hard work is appreciated.  If you didn’t do it, it probably would not have happened, so any criticisms are almost irrelevant.  However, Billy did ask for feedback, so…

1.      I commend you for the format of the presentations, which was creative and entertaining.  
2.      The event lasted 6 ½ weeks (3/21 - 5/5), which seemed somewhat long.  Could the length of time be shortened by having more categories in fewer rounds?
3.      For categories, I would recommend having fewer “best parody by a particular parody writer.”  Even though Phil Alexander deservedly won the award for best parody writer on Amiright, a contest between Phil Alexander and Phil Alexander does not get my attention as much as, say, Phil Alexander against Will Tong against Mike Armstrong against…
4.      If there is a “next time,” I would recommend a new category for “best commenter.”  I think that most of us appreciate reading an insightful comment (especially on our own parodies) almost as much as reading a good parody.  There are some clever people who write witty comments, and I think it would be appropriate to recognize one of them somehow.

Funny that Watt and I are presenters for the Saddam/Iraq parody ;)  But wow, breakout parody artists, eh?  That is quite an achievement, and we are honored to be so recognized.  Forgive our brief parody hiatus, but I'm out of motivation right now and I always stress quality over quantity of parodies so y'all are just going to have to be patient ;)  Sooner or later, we'll get our second wind :)

Thanks to Syncronos for his friendly competition and support.  Thanks to Mike Florio and Ghetto John for offering to duet, I'm sorry that I sometimes didn't have the time or motivation to do it but I respect you as fellow parody artists.  Thanks to all who have ever commented or voted on our parodies and who have boosted enough of them into the top ten charts for us to be recognized with this award.  And finally, thanks to my best friend Watt for being an inspiration and for his support.

Parody on!

*Leans over Rice Cube's shoulder*
Yeah, Thanks  ;D

I liked the format as well, it made it fun to read, instead of just a list of winners.  Thanks for all your work, and for making it entertaining!

Congratulations to all the winners, maybe next time Ill bring home a few. I am honored to say I was recognized and nominated,and we'll see what happens next time. And of course, Ive got to give props to S.T.G., dude we got nominated, and I will send you the lyrics for our new duet soon. Peace --- Ghetto John

Truly honored to have received 3 amiright awards. congrats to all the other winners and nominees.

Oh, just in case anyone wonders who actually wrote those 3 songs...

"mailman malone" was a dual effort

"welcome to mcdonald's" was Mike's

"99 great cartoons" is mine

congrats again everyone. Mike and I should have some of these recorded and up by mid june.

And having Mike and me open the show singing is one of the funniest things i've read in awhile. Not that we're bad... it's just great. Opening was truly an honor! Let's hope we can make it back soon.
