Professor of Memeology: Potato
Kek originated from wow from what I remembered. Whenever Horde members would speak in all chat and say "lol" it would be shown as "kek" on all chat. That's the origin of "kekekekekekek".

On the flipside, Kek was also an ancient Egyptian God of chaos that was often depicted as a frog. This was later adopted by 4chan with Kek depicted as Pepe the Frog. The cult of Kek is sort of an ironic stab at modern religion where they believe that their God can meddle with worldly affairs through "meme magic" and can only be appeased by "digits".
