Newest Twitter Trend: “Starter Packs”
Starter packs are the latest trend on Twitter
December 9, 2014
There’s a new, humorous trend on Twitter known as “starter packs.” A starter pack is a collection of pictures of a certain person or stereotype stating that whatever the images are, that’s what you “need” to be that type of person/stereotype. There’s an account on Twitter that have starter packs for LHS students and teachers.
Some “starter packs” include:
- The “mom” starter pack
- The “didn’t study for finals” starter pack
- The “what I want for Christmas” starter pack
- The “short girl” starter pack
- The “typical white girl” starter pack
- “the starter pack y’all need” that features images of Jesus Christ
They’ve recently started dying down a bit on Twitter, but they’re still in people’s news feed every now and again. The intention for these “starter packs” is to be funny, but there have been some people who get offended and either block or report whichever account posted that starter pack. Since it’s just another fad on Twitter, it’ll die out completely eventually, but they’re still very entertaining.
