Puritopian

c. 2012 A useless, infantile twitter term made up by twitter trolls meaning people who have too much "pureness" in their liberalism. Specifically to used against anyone who is a democrat and questions the current Administration in the Whitehouse.

"I call people Puritopians because it makes me feel superior to others. Meanwhile I might be actually helping the right wing win by stirring up infighting - but who cares - blaming others is so much easier than actually doing something."

Not this again. LMAO. Yellow is perfectly acceptable on a hotdog. Brown is great on turkey and pastrami.

In a pinch, though, I will choose brown over no mustard at all on my hotdog. It's not a hotdog without it being slathered with mustard.

At least you don't put ketchup on it. That's just gross.
