Matt the Radar Technician is defined by one very specific look: a floppy blond wig, thick black-framed glasses, and a plain gray Starkiller Base uniform, worn by a visibly sulking Adam Driver trying and failing to blend in with rank-and-file First Order techs1. The gag is that Matt is Kylo Ren in a paper-thin disguise, and every attempt to gather honest feedback about his own management style ends with him lightsaber-slashing a computer console or shoving a coworker across the room.

As a meme, Matt shows up in two lanes. Fans treat him as a legitimate Star Wars character in his own right, sculpting custom action figures, Funko Pops, and Battlefront skins, and running a long-lived Tumblr blog written from Matt's point of view3. In parallel, screenshots from the sketch feed image macros riffing on Matt's forced-cheerful introduction line and his awkward attempts to make small talk about radar equipment.

Typical Matt jokes lean on the visual: pair a still of Adam Driver's blond, bespectacled Matt with a caption that pretends he is a real First Order employee, or drop the introduction line ('Hi, my name is Matt, I'm a radar technician') over any awkward workplace scenario. The other common convention is to treat Matt as a canonical Star Wars character, whether that means building a custom figure, modding him into a game, or running an in-character social account that never breaks the bit.
