OK, that's actually something that I just made up, but if such an award existed, would not the following win it?
"Here's a tricky ethical conundrum – how much can you command yourself to care about the suffering of a monumental dickhead?"
While being mindful of the gendered nature of the included slur (thanks Metafilter!) I nonetheless submit to you the tribulations (SLGuardian) faced by West London curator Ben Moore, courtesy of the Guardian's Lucy Mangan's review of The Stormtrooper Scandal.
One choice quote: "Furious trading ensues and Moore and the cryptobros take a cut of everything and make (estimated) millions. Then some of the artists become aware that pictures of their work have been taken and sold without permission. To the apparent total surprise of Moore, this matters and ultimately ends in the NFTs becoming worthless."
Oh ho ho, did you say NFT? And also, somehow, Star Wars?
Fair warning: I have yet to see the film, but with a writeup like this, you can be sure it's in my watchlist. Currently airing on BBC2, here's hoping we'll find it on SBS soon enough.
Creepto derision not just welcome, but encouraged! (And has anyone else noticed a dramatic increase in the spicyness of Guardian reviews?)
