My iPod froze and in a fit of rage I may have banged it against the side of my desk a few times.
Now it finally reset but it's making a clicking noise (it sounds like a clock), the screen is really dim and it says "do not disconnect" but looks way different from the normal syncing screen.
Also, there may or may not be several small dents on the back. WHOOPS.

It served me well for six years. And probably would have still been okay if I hadn't held down the wrong buttons to restart and lost my temper...

You just described my entire life.
What you did, is literally me with every phone I've broken.
Also, Adam, you can lolapple, all you want, but I'm backing her up here. Every non-apple mp3 player I've had broke mysteriously without warning after three months. None of them were thrown, abused, dropped or mishandled.
Dell Jukebox
Total time it worked - Three months
Randomly stopped recognizing the player was connected to the computer. They gave me a new one, but I lent it to someone in the hospital after a risky brain cancer operation and coincidentally never saw them again. Not sure if that one screwed up or not,
Creative Zen
Total time it worked - two months
Put it in my purse to go to dinner one day after listening to it in the car. Came out of the restaurant and reached into my purse. It was buning hot to the touch and never went beyond the boot up CREATIVE screen ever again.
Zune
Total time it worked - three months
It randomly decided I was using all 30GB of storage when my total music library was less than 10GB of music. I deleted everything off the device in it's entirety and then it said it still had 20 some odd GBs left. I tried a factory reset and the entire device froze until the battery died. Any attempt to perform factory resets after that would freeze it until the battery died. Their help desk based in India was less than helpful
POS battery operated player I got at CVS
Total time that it worked - 1 month
When I plugged it into the computer at work (you could use it as a thumbdrive according to the instructions) it did something ******** up my computer and my computer thought the mp3 player was the main drive. Technology had to wipe and reformat the entire computer. I thought I was gonna get fired and was asked by technology and my boss not to plug in non company oned devices into the PCs from then on. Coincidentally, it became a corporate-wide policy the next year to ban the use of all personal devices with corporate PCs, but that was because it was for information security and they couldn't ensure the encryption of personal devices, I swear it wasn't me.
all that VS my ipod
My 60g iPod classic
Sometimes the scrolly wheely thing gets stuck and I have to press it before it recognizes me whirling my thumb over it. Tends to happen especially if it's cold outside.

Xipps I knew you would understand. heart I still can't believe I did it, but yeah the thing still isn't responding. I got it for my 17th birthday and I just got so annoyed with it on Friday. And then I felt like a complete doob when I realized I hadn't been pressing the right buttons. Its not even a problem since I only used that one in the car and I have two other iPods that I can use for the same purpose (my old iPhone and a Nano that I dropped once) but I'm still sad to throw it away.

I know how you feel. I feel like a douche every time I rage break something. I have calmed down a lot, but I still smack my phone on my palm when it frustrates me.
BUT GUESS WHAAAAAT? The screen is still intact. I'm pretty careful with it. I've dropped it a few times, and Qi ******** up the volume buttons a bit when she pulled it out of my purse and chewed on it in frustration once after she couldn't get a baggy of cat n** out of a zippered compartment, but everything still works.
