Get the Jamaican shower mug.A sarcastic term for the belief system of leftists who are unable to pick battles they can win, and who get sulky and bitter when they can’t get support from outside their circles.

Get the Brown Line mug.A term created by sex columnist and liberal Dan Savage in the wake of the 2004 Presidential Election to describe the concentration of the political left in the United States near major cities and college towns in terms of islands of diversity in a sea of conformity.
