The Resume

Birth name was Paul Schersten
Writer for and voice of Ned the Nanite and portrayed Ortega and the Observer on Mystery Science Theater 3000 (1991-99)

Why he might be annoying:

For no apparent reason, on his first comedy job he wrote his last name as Chaplin instead of Schersten, much to the chagrin of his parents, and it stuck.

Why he might not be annoying:

He was tested to write ten minutes of the movie 'Daddy-O' for Mystery Science Theater 3000 approval, he did and was hired.
Although the first time he went out as a comedian, he bombed miserably, then tried a second time and killed.
He earned a Masters Degree from the Humphrey Institute of Public Affairs.
