Justin Trudeau wore super geeky 'Star Wars' socks to meet the Irish Prime Minister

Everyone broke out their best Star Wars gear in celebration of May the Fourth (aka Star Wars Day) and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was no exception.

To celebrate the day, Trudeau rocked some super geeky Star Wars socks while meeting with Ireland's Prime Minister, Enda Kenny.

The chill AF world leader appropriately chose one R2-D2 sock and one C-3PO sock (they're a team after all) for the occasion and documented his very nerdy sartorial choices on his Instagram story.

And because Trudeau knows what the internet wants, he later posted a closeup of the socks on Twitter, and wished everyone a happy May the Fourth:

Then Twitter, as it does with all things Star Wars, went into freak out mode.
