Turns out the Whisker Menu (the default start menu on Linux Mint's XFCE desktop) is just a plugin & the start menu for XFCE usually looks like this instead:

I thought it looked cooler, at least with a skeuomorphic theme, but the only downside is that the text & icons are wayyy smaller than what I'm used to.
Edit: Nvm I can just make the application menu have bigger text by going into the appearance settings.
