World’s greatest Internet troll tells how he does it
It’s theater of the absurd by someone who realizes having rational conversations online is often futile.
Click here for reuse options!Calling Ken a troll is a bit of a category error — though he does lure in commenters with false premises and hilariously mistaken information, his act is more like a new kind of improv comedy. To my critical eye, he’s an internet love child of early Smothers Brothers and Jack Handy, with a dash of Greg Packer, too. (Packer is a non-comedian famous for showing up as the “man on the street” in countless news articles, the same way Ken M is likely to pop up in comment sections.)
Ken experiments a lot. His persona easily transforms from that of a confused old man to a punctilious professor, but the result always has the same absurd sense of humor. Though his audience changes as well — he shifts between news comment sections and branded Facebook pages, among others — he adapts to each with jokes that he constructs on the fly.

I’ve been banned from a whole bunch of conservative website even though I never break their rules.
But Mobys will go on those same sites and say the most outrageous, absurd conservative things and they never get banned.
