The world premiere of [_Star Wars: The Force Awakens_](http://time.com/4144531/star-wars-video-oscar-boyson/) in Los Angeles Monday night has created an echo chamber of fans posting variations of “no spoilers!” on their social media timelines (which also means it’s the perfect time to watch the [_Key & Peele_ parody](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VDEuS5wIk5Q) about how this paranoia stifles conversation).

This reaction has prompted the Internet to poke fun at these spoilerphobes by tweeting fake reveals using hashtags like [#StarWarsSpoilers](https://twitter.com/search?q=%23starwarsspoilers&src=typd) and [#ForceAwakensSpoilers](https://twitter.com/hashtag/ForceAwakensSpoilers?src=hash). Some tweets are from earlier this month, but they have picked up steam over the last 24 hours. Scrolling through the tweets is an amusing way to kill time before the film opens in theaters on Dec. 18.
