At first glance, this statement seems to make little sense, because in the literal sense, something is either pure or it isn't. Pure  normally means"not mixed up with any other material," as in "pure gold." However,  "pure," according to the Urban Dictionary can also be used informally, to mean "beautiful."   So "that's the purest thing ever" could mean, "That's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen."
