basic bitches

We've got to hand it to the creators of starter pack memes. While some starter packs are easy (grandma starter pack, high school teacher starter pack) most require a good deal of thought. While the format itself is super versatile, it's hard to pull 'em off in a way that does the subject justice. These starter packs, carefully selected from the r/starterpack subreddit, are the best we've seen lately. And we're here to share 'em with you.

We never wanted to be that chick whining about breaking her nail, but here we are. No matter how hard you try, most women have moments like this that feel like we are feeding into unfortunate stereotypes. But you know what? That's okay! We're not hurting anyone, and anyway, sometimes it's fun to be basic.

It's time to get in touch with your basic b*tch and embrace Hard Seltzer. White Claw and Bon & Viv (thought they were simply Spiked Seltzer back in the day) have been on the scene since 2016 and 2012, respectively. While it's taken almost ten years for these low-carb boozy beverages to take off, they've officially become the most insane booze trend of the summer. While White Claw definitely wins the award for most-memed hard seltzer, Natural Light and Four Loko have both announced competing beverages with higher alcohol volumes. Four Loko's 14.5% ABV might be something we are a little afraid of, we're still reveling in these memes. They're something we can enjoy until we can crack open a claw of our own. 

Hey ladies! If you haven't had a girls night in a while or are need of some #relatablecontent or a good self-drag, these are the memes and tweets for you! From spending your entire paycheck at Sephora to pining over a dude that doesn't deserve a second thought, this collection of memes is sure to hit home.
