If you've ever perused Yahoo! articles, you already know not to ever venture down to their comments section and read the brain cell killing, rage-inducing lunacy that is sure to be posted down there. Now the masterful trolling by "Ken M" of Horsey Surprise is making us rethink our decision to skip over those Yahoo! comment sections. Ken M posts trolling comments which are a funny, brilliant mix of confident ignorance, meandering and disturbing personal anecdotes, and surreal facts which are just close enough to the truth that unsuspecting readers might believe he's a real person.
Ken M is staff writer "The Troll" on College Humor and has also been posting screencaps of these trolling gems on his blog since April 2011. When he's not trolling Yahoo!, you may spot his trolling on Huffington Post, Wikipedia, Facebook, and even Yelp. This talented fellow is even an accomplished songwriter. His rousing ballad, "Horse Paradise", brought a tear to my cynical eye.
We've spent hours laughing at the 450 or so amazing screencaps at Ken M's website. Below you'll find our favorite 39 trolling comments by this master of the medium, plus a bonus picture at the end. Thanks to Reddit for the heads up.

These are seriously funny as hell.
I’ve only gotten to 7 so far…this is good stuff.
I got to 5 before I did a literal spit take
If I could spend the rest of my life doing this and eating Totino’s Pizza Rolls, that, my friends, would be my heaven.
I lol’d and I never lol.
never? frownie face.
This Ken M. feller IS comedic GOLD. I have to keep coughing and / or sniffling after each attempt to stiffle my laughter, so my co-workers think I’m just fighing off a cold or something.
I find myself doing that often at work when reading some stuff on Uproxx. A stifled laugh because a throat clear or half-sneeze
The Punxsutawney Phil troll is Ken M’s greatest masterpiece.
“they started wearing the tophats as a clever tribute to the movie that charmed a generation”
Hilarious.
“if a movie is good enough, it can plant false memories into people’s minds.”
So. True. PLUS three dislikes is the best part.
Ken is the best.
I laughed so loudly at my desk at the Quibble App thing that people had to take a momentary break from ignoring my existence.
Amazing. My dog is giving me dirty looks because I’m laughing way too hard.
Holy shit. #s 9, 15, 23, 36….
I just had to leave my desk at #36 because i was laughing so hard I was crying
Tears are rolling down my face. I hope no one walks by my cubicle
That Groundhog Day bit is so funny I almost choked to death on a Tootsie Pop.
This is majestic. Someone should make a movie about this guy, so that they’ll start a holiday after him, like Labor Day or something.
Lots of great stuff here. I much prefer trolls who play dumb to the ones who are just snide dicks. The Groundhog Day one and the terracotta warriors one were brilliant. Also, “If I were science,” “the meatballs in Washington,” “let out all the gravity.”
I used to work in the factory that made the Snausages mentioned in #37. Thinking about eating those almost made me vomit. This man is represents trolling at its finest.
Damn you! Dafoe smiling will haunt my dreams forever.
Damn Russkies, trying to steal our precious gravity!
All hail the Troll King.
It took me a while to get into this, but I’m glad I stuck with it. It’s good stuff.
this dude is incredible
pure amazing.
I went through all of these trying not to laugh out loud since my GF was sleeping, and by the groundhog day one, I burst out so hard. I think I tore an abdominal.
Anyhow, re-read the first one about mole people. Its a lot funnier the second time around.
After re-reading some of these I realized how deep these are. He’s also bagging on yahoo commenters who often get a lot of up votes. A good portion of his posts end with something like, “now if only we could get CONGRESS to stop being lazy mole people
!!” It’s an especially sly form of trolling, because you see those boilerplate comments all the time on yahoo with 900 votes on articles about cheez whiz.
If people like Ken M would spend more time using their words for the good of this nation we wouldn’t be in this position. #KenM’d
Made my morning Ken M. Thanks for that.
