She's so basic she just ordered a bud light! I'll have a chocolate stout that I don't really even like because I'm so afraid someone might see me and call me basic.

A filler word used repeatedly by individuals, like the words 'like' and 'stuff' or various curse words. Often times the speaker has no idea they are saying it until you bring it up. It is also a sign that the speaker isn't actively speaking and probably talking from the top of their head. This often makes them seem 'awkward' or 'unintelligent'. Ironically, often times these individuals are the smartest people we know...
Jacob: Basically, I grew up in California, and basically liked to eat Mexican food. Which basically tasted good; if you like that stuff, basically."
Jason: You know you use the word 'basically' a lot right?
Jacob: Do I sorry...

A girl who wears brand named clothes and watches 100 best vines of 2015 videos all days. She is just very mainstream and uncreative. The only word you think to describe her is "basic".
Guy 1: Lol Puja is wearing her white Nike golf hat, pink Nike shoes, and white girl clothes again.
Guy 2: hahaha Puja is such a basic bitch

The first easy-to-use programming language made in the 1960s when Microcomputers made their debut. A very easy language to grasp. The language practically paths out commands for a computer to do. It is very capable of performing mathematics which are the main basis for Microprocessing.
start
Print "Hello world!"
goto start
"Result - "Hello world" being typed on the screen in an infinite loop"
Print "Hello world!"
goto start
"Result - "Hello world" being typed on the screen in an infinite loop"

1. Beginner's All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code: A line-oriented, limited programming language invented in the 1960s for the purpose of teaching university students to program computers.
Each line of BASIC code must be preceded by a number, which serves as a label for the GOTO statement.
The type of a BASIC variable is determined by a suffix. For example, A$ is a string, while A% is an integer.
2. Any programming language that borrows a few things from BASIC, even if it is also heavily influenced by other programming languages, such as Pascal. Includes QBASIC, FreeBASIC, PureBASIC, Visual Basic, and DarkBASIC, and other similar programming languages. These BASICs frequently add support for functions and user-defined types, and they also frequently don't allow user-defined types or arrays to be passed as arguments to functions.
Such languages are typically surrounded by communities that eschew the sort of structured programming that is mandatory in the majority of other programming languages. As such, parallel arrays are preferred over user-defined types, GOSUB statements are preferred over functions, single-line IF statements in conjunction with GOTO are popular even in BASICs that support block IF statements, and GOTO is often used when a loop statement would suffice and be more readable. Even when control structures are used, it is rare to see any sort of indentation of the code that goes within a construct. A notable exception to this tendency is the Visual Basic community.
A similar programming language is INTERCAL.

Basic is a word to describe something which isn't special and has no unique qualities. Being basic means you are never the centre of attention and are always in the background. Your just there
