Warning: This post contains spoilers for The Last Jedi.You’d think if you’ve got a galaxy-spanning mind-meld scheduled with the evil leader of the Knights of Ren, the least he can do is put a shirt on so there’s a sense of decorum during your “meetings.” No, wait… the least he can do is not hike his pants up like he’s the galaxy far, far away’s super sexy version of Steve Urkel. Unfortunately for Rey, that’s just the way Kylo Ren roles. However, while she was uncomfortable with Kylo’s look, it is making for one very silly internet meme, one that even John Mayer had to get in on. The Kylo Ren Challenge is certainly one way to prove your body is a wonderland.

Not a whole lot to explain on this one, right? Didn’t think so, so let’s just get right into appreciating how absurd this fad really is with some of our favorite entrants.

This next one might seem to defy time and space, but it counts. It definitely counts.

Let’s be real… Swayze did it the best #kylorenchallenge

What an absolutely absurd way to transition into 2018. But now we’re going to need to start the new year with the Rey Challenge, where everyone posts their mortified reactions to the Kylo Ren Challenge.What’s the best Kylo Ren Challenge photo you saw? Share it with us in the comments below.
