someone who expects everything to be exactly like the thing they like; doesn't believe in watered-down versions of such things
A country purist expects all country music to be honky-tonk and feeling sorry for yourself. A punk purist expects all punk to anarchist and government-hating. A metal purist expects all metal to be about fantasy things like dragons and knights, or about sex, drugs, and rock and roll and have instrumental solos. An R&B purist expects all R&B to have horns in the music. A rap/hip hop purist expects all rap/hip hop to have swearing and bragging. A jazz purist expects all jazz to be instrumental only. A pop purist expects all pop to be like the teen pop of the 1980s and 1990s. A folk/ singer/songwriter purist expects all folk/singer/songwriter albums to just the singer's voice and either an acoustic guitar, a piano, or all three of these.

Get the puristmug. Arthur: "Someone named Sharonda is interested in me".
Me: "You better not let Mike hear you say that because he thinks I'm your real girlfriend, not her".
Arthur: "And, you better not let him hear about Tyrone, either, or he'll think we're cheating on each other with these people".

Get the Sharondamug. I was reading the book Reviving Ophelia and Gail, one of Mary Pipher's patients, said that the phrase "sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll" had been changed to "masturbation, booze, and Madonna". Wow.

Get the masturbation, booze, and madonnamug. Joe used to smoke, but he quit cold turkey and hasn't gone back to it since. He is living proof that going cold turkey can be successful, especially if you don't do your bad habit very often. He only smoked his cloves 3-4 times a week.

Get the cold turkeymug. 1)The weather said we're supposed to get powdery sticky rain showers next Thursday.
2) I call snow "powdery sticky rain" in the off-season because in my mind, snow only falls in the wintertime. In the other seasons, it's not supposed to be here, so I call it that.

Get the powdery sticky rainmug. 1)Me: "Do you want to know what Arthur thinks lavender smells like? Froot Loops!"
Carol: "Arthur is a froot loop!"
2) Arthur is a real froot loop to think lavender smells like Froot Loops. I smelled it for myself and discovered he was right. Does that make me a froot loop, too?

Get the froot loopmug. a song by American Idol winner Kelly Clarkson. Known for its Avril Lavigne-meets-Papa Roach pop/alternative metal sound, it is quite darker than what we are used to hearing from her. Dissed mainly by people who either (1) say it's meaningless pop music, or (2) are skeptical because of some of its phrases that they think Kelly shouldn't be saying because she's a teen pop singer (I was one of the latter).
To the person who dissed "Behind These Hazel Eyes" in the Kelly Clarkson definition, you forgot to add some of these lyrics to diss. "Seems like just yesterday, you were a part of me" and "No, I don't cry on the outside ANYMORE!" were just as meaningless as the other lyrics you posted there. Besides, the latter lyric is really unnecessary. No one cares except for people that know her that she doesn't cry on the outside anymore.
