“Bros Being Basic” Is The Funniest Thing You’ll See Today

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at New Paltz chapter.

The Instagram account, @brosbeingbasic hilariously and accurately captures all of the basic moments that many of us girls post on social media. Men are encouraged to snap a photo of themselves mimicking “basic b*tch” moves and send it to their @brosbeingbasic accounts to be featured on their social media outlets with hysterical and cliche quotes and hashtags. Some of my personal ‘basic AF’ favorite trends include:

 

 

The “Free Your Nips” Trend

 

The Fall Flannel “Twinning” Trend

 

 

The Keeping Up With the Basic Bible (KUWTK)

 

The Famous Flamingo Floatie Trend

 

The Notorious Bubble Bath Trend

 

The Brunch Trend

 

The Shamrock Shake Trend

 

The Showing Off Your Legs Trend

 

The Yoga On Top Of The World Trend

 

The Food Pic Trend

 

 

The Besties Doing Yoga Together Trend

 

The Leg Pop Trend

 

 

But at the end of the day who cares if you’re basic AF. 

Noone else says it better than L.C, “I probably am pretty basic. But I’m also a pretty happy person, so that’s OK with me.”
