Purity's ex-boyfriend who never leaves and keeps touching everything.
means The presence of an unwanted substance or influence that makes something impure, unsafe, or unfit for its intended use.
from From Latin 'contaminare,' to defile or corrupt, built from 'con-' (together) plus a root shared with 'tangere,' to touch — related to words like 'tangent' and 'tactile.' So at its core, contamination has always literally meant a kind of unwanted touching: one thing coming into contact with another and leaving something behind it shouldn't have.
