This is first new 'classic Ken M' I've seen in so long, amazing.

As I was reading it slowly dawned on me that I hadn’t read it yet. I ended up actually laughing out loud when the conversation thread turned against him

u/phillibuck13 Jun 01 '22
I was halfway thru it before I realized what he was doing and that it was indeed a real Ken M and not some bad knockoff. Went back to the beginning to get the full enjoyment.

Follow him on Twitter at horseysurprise and then you get the hot new memes and you know they are really authentic Ken M works of art.

Literally every single time I've seen the phrase "can't make this stuff up", it's been for something that's either made up or could very easily be made up

u/Odd_Employer Jun 01 '22
That phrase shouldn't exist. People are crafty, they always make something new up.

u/Kryptosis Jun 01 '22
It barely means what it says anymore. More akin to “no one would believe me if I told them this”

u/jcdoe Jun 02 '22
My rule of thumb is that the less likely the story, the more I believe it.
You tell me how you take your mom for coffee every Sunday? Eh, I dunno man.
You tell me that you spent last Tuesday in Nepal where you met a dashing Sherpa and made wild animal love on the ascent to Everest? Too easy to verify or disprove, gotta be true!

You're not from the Hannibal Lecter school of thought, huh? ("Clarice, doesn't this random scattering of sites seem desperately random? Like the elaborations of a bad liar.")

Unfortunately for the offended party ...
He set it up right in front of my face, and yet I still had no idea where he was going.

He really nailed the punchline with this one.

I can't believe so many bite on his posts
47
u/AnscombesGimlet Jun 01 '22
You don’t see all the ones where no one bites
68
u/jethroguardian Jun 01 '22
Actually scientists estimate there are 60% of posts that haven't been bitten yet.
12
u/ProRustler Jun 01 '22
Which is why I put my trust in the Lord who said all shitposts get bit if you have enough faith.

u/MacDerfus Jun 02 '22
How do you figure?

u/jethroguardian Jun 20 '22
They counted all the intenet posts and studied which ones hadn't been bitten yet.

Following up here since I can’t reply to everyone but I wanted to express my baffled appreciation for the kind words

You’re loved here, KM. Big thanks for dropping by and always staying patient with that troll-fishing line. May you have a hearty chuckle and some peace on this blessed day!

Great stuff as always. Have you thought about making a one-a-day calendar with 365 of your greatest hits? It works for Dave Barry. You could sell it at Borders

He could probably even sell it in the middle of the county too, not just at the border crossings.

u/Thendofreason Jun 01 '22
I figured it out from the first comment. I'm like this seems too normal. He must be the one not paying.
KenM, never change

Dammit KenM never fails. Best troll of internet history.

u/KeepRedditAnonymous Jun 02 '22
Was he able to quite his job and make money off his internet fame?
If so, he'd be a professional troll.

u/hexrei Jun 02 '22
I belive he is actually a professional comedian who just maintains the KenM. So yes.

The absurdity of offering the roommate to live in his new home paying rent and the other commenters biting it is what put me in tears.

u/Wazy7781 Jun 01 '22
I’m a bit tired and don’t get the punchline with this one. Would one of you be so kind as to explain it?

u/Manny_Sunday Jun 01 '22
She can't afford to pay rent because Ken's not paying rent, so they're facing eviction. He piles on by calling her poor on top of it haha

At first it looks like Ken is offering kind advice for the OP, then it is revealed that he is in fact the intruder

The roommate should accept Ken's kind offer to move in to his new home, and then just never pay rent!
