Klaud, the slug-like Trodatome mechanic first introduced in 'Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker', became an unexpected internet sensation through the 'Live Slug Reaction' meme. The trend gained massive traction in early 2022 when a Twitter user parodied live news broadcasts by placing Klaud’s indifferent, wide-eyed expression over a scene from a Disney+ trailer. The humor stems from Klaud’s bizarre design and his lack of a visible mouth, making his 'reaction' appear hilariously neutral regardless of the situation. It is widely used to express awkward silence, judgment, or sheer disbelief in response to controversial or bizarre online content.
