Kenneth Erwin Englehardt (born 2 March 1960) also known by his online alias as "Sailfish", and affectionately nicknamed Kengle or OnionNull, [note 2] is the current owner of the Onion Farms; a splinter forum based on the Kiwi Farms, and the Onionpedia; a Wordpress based splinter wiki based on this one.

Kenneth is sometimes noted for the dubious honor of being the second person in Chris's life to encapsulate all five groups in the Unholy Quintet, the first of whom being Jacob Sockness. Kenneth was once one of Chris's Facebook white knights during the Second Exile. He would then act as a financial enabler of Chris, and then an A-log, ween, and carpetbagger during Chris's stay in jail.

Kenneth is also notable for being one of two confirmed genuine fans of Sonichu during the comic's run (another being Sonichuizcool). As an overweight, inept, autistic,[2] elderly, part-time bookkeeper and accountant with a penchant for creating bizarre artwork, Kenneth naturally felt as though he shares a lot in common with him.

Unlike most other white knights at the time, Kenneth had actually called Chris out when he was in the wrong, suggesting him to release his anger towards Sonic Boom on something less destructive than vandalizing merchandise. He has also bought several of Chris' eBay items, and sent him some sardines after Chris's house burned down.

Kenneth has later gained notoriety for posting many of Chris's letters from jail on his own Onion Farms website, seemingly as a means to promote the website and other related projects.

Relationships with the CWCsphere

Feud with the Kiwi Farms

Kenneth had created an account on the Kiwi Farms on 16 May 2015.

Kenneth was temporarily banned from the Kiwi Farms because he seemed not to comprehend that there are mean people on the Internet, and instead believed that everyone is genuinely interested in Chris as a cool famous Internet dude who everyone wants to befriend. Eventually, accepting the fact that such people existed, Kenneth has decided to go on an online crusade against them. In 2017, he started kiwifarms.xyz, a blog in which he wrote angry posts about Donald Trump and other topics in an attempt to divert attention from the real Kiwi Farms to himself. This attempt had evidently failed.

Ownership of Onion Farms

Kenneth had later created the website Onion Farms in its current incarnaton in 2019 as a splinter site of the lolcow forum Kiwi Farms, claiming it to be an alternative. The website's namesake comes from how the site was intended for covering "layers of drama and gossip". The website was also created as a gossip site for lolcows, though Kenneth had planned for the site to focus on lolcows from every country around the world.

On the forum, Chris has a discussion board of his own, much like on the Kiwi Farms. Most of the threads found on this board were created for the letters that Kenneth had received from Chris. The rest of the board primiarly consists of threads centered around minor orbiters of Chris and updates regarding Kenneth's interactions with Chris.

Controversies surrounding the Onion Farms

Naught was promoted as an administrator on the website, and has been a frequent poster on there. Kenneth had received complaints by orbiters for this decision due to Naught's controversial online activities.

A screencap of the lolicon board before getting deleted

A discussion board dedicated to lolicon and shotacon was also created on the website.[3] Kenneth had posted several times on this board, even creating four threads regarding the legality of lolicon, which would lead to Null banning him on Kiwi Farms a second time, and him claiming that he would contact authorities the following day due to allegations of Kenneth being a pedophile being made.[4] Kenneth then deleted the subforum, and created a thread apologizing for its creation.[5]

Sonichen and Rosechen

Kenneth is well-known for his artwork, Sonichen and Rosechen. While he was initially rejected as a troll by Chris, this is no longer the case, and they have been Facebook friends for quite a while. Kenneth remains the only person on record to have made a Sonichu-derivative website, though the website has been dead since 2018.

It is not known what Chris thought of this parody, but according to Kenneth himself Chris takes a neutral stance. Kenneth had attempted to get Chris to implement the characters from this series into his Sonichu canon, though Chris had disagreed with doing such a crossover.[6]

Relationship with Chris

Prior to the creation of the Onion Farms, Kenneth was a frequent, though minor, orbiter of Chris's. Kenneth's intentions towards Chris seemed entirely True and Honest. Kenneth will often give praise to Chris when he feels there is justification in doing so. A notable example of this was praising on Christian on some of his artwork of a medallion, having an opinion on a video game, and breathing in and out. That being said, he'll occasionally make what appears to be a subtle jab at Chris, and even outright call him out when he's clearly in the wrong, in particular over the events of 26 December 2014.

Occasionally, he does post on Chris's Facebook statuses. There is some debate on whether Kenneth can be considered a member of Chris's inner circle on Facebook (as they do have a number of mutual friends, the most notable being William Elliott Waterman), but Kenneth is often flatly ignored and sometimes treated contemptuously by Chris. Despite being known as a lolcow amongst lolcow enthusiasts, by and large he is actually quite well-liked on Facebook.

Kenneth has also hosted anti-bullying forums in the past, on Sonichu.org and Spergweb.com. Technical issues (caused by his unfamiliarity with forum design) and trolling forced these off the Internet. While Chris did express interest in his idea of making a fan-site, this did not materialize due to Kenneth's unfamiliarity with Dreamweaver.

Kenneth has also bought several of Chris' eBay items, and sent him some sardines after Chris's house burned down. Kenneth had also sent a message to Jessica Quinn on February 2016 to suggest to Chris to mutally exchange $10 giftcards.[7]

Ken once bought a Sonic the Hedgehog comic book. The problem was that it contained a preview for Sonic Boom at the start, which predictably got Chris hotheaded.

On May 2, 2018, Chris listed a spare Sonichu license plate on eBay. Since license plates may be considered DMV property, Kenneth asked Chris if he got permission to sell it from the DMV, which prompted Chris to ask him to stop, to which Kenneth agreed. Two days later, on May 4, 2018, somebody suggested to Chris that his donations dropping could be Patreon taking a 50% cut, which Kenneth said was outrageous. This prompted Chris to call Kenneth outrageous and tell him not to comment on his posts anymore or Chris would unfriend him, but he told Kenneth that he is still allowed to donate to Chris's Patreon if he chooses. Kenneth, having finally had enough, told Chris that friendships don't work like that and said goodbye, suggesting that he was done with Chris.

Not too long after, Kenneth replied to Chris's tweet begging for money:

Have you considered a project manager? They can help with work layout, publicity, the bottom line and so forth.

Chris replied with:

If I had even remotely Knew of such a Manager YEARS ago, I seriously would have done that sooner. Eeyup.

Kenneth had been responding to Chris so frequently, that Chris had decided to create a test on Twitter, seeing if he would reply to his message.

Jail Communications

Kenneth had used his Onion Farms website as a host for posting a good number of the known letters that Chris had sent from Jail. Kenneth had initiated a letter towards Chris sometime before October 2021, as he was curious of how he was doing in jail. Chris had first contacted Kenneth via letter on 4 October 2021, where he declares that he is Jesus of Nazareth, like he has with Null.

Chris had appeared to see Kenneth as trustworthy to host letters and calls involving him while he is in Jail. He had directed the financial enablers Zombo to Kenneth's website in order to provide monetary donations to him.

Kenneth Cuts Ties

After Chris has been transfered from Central Virginia Regional Jail to an undiscloed location, Kenneth had claimed he would cut all ties with Chris. He had then leaked all of the letters that he had previously concealed in full, including a letter that had the names of Chris's relatives on it, though he had censored their names.

Kenneth Strikes Back

Please post this on kiwifarms. I am not holding back or being unfair. We've have gotten some pretty amazing content from what CWC chooses to share. But she calls the shots and there are people who write her telling what has been posted on Onionfarms.
Kenneth prompting people lurking on his site to tell people on Kiwi Farms about content from Chris he farmed.[8]

After Chris had been transferred back to Central Virginia Regional Jail, Kenneth had decided to initiate letters back to Chris,[9] and had once again agreed to conceal certain letters of his by his request. Kenneth would partially break this promise still by summarizing the major points of one of the letters he was told not to share.

On 30 May 2022, Kenneth had made a thread on Onion Farms, in which he told people to post on the Kiwi Farms to promote content that he had received from Chris. Null had responded to this with "It took 9 years, but Kengle finally has a way to use Chris to get attention that nobody can interfere with. Congrats, big boy."[10]
