Puritan

A person that's literally the king/queen of inferiority that they make themselves feel better by acting morally over the top that they expect everyone to be like them and anyone that dares to differ will be canceled
My puritan friends act like they better than everyone but when they walked downstairs, they saw that me, my friend, and the dog were in fancy clothes, they freaked the fuck out and had a temper tantrum.

Girl: But look at Zack! He's shirtless and his jeans are so low we can practically see all of his boxers! Why is that ok??
