Anybody else notice this on the TV?
I've seen two twentysomething black women sucking their thumbs. What's up with that?

It's become trendy, you must be outta the loop.

Chicks do it cause they think its "cute."

Alot of tweakers do it as well, espcially when at a rave, high on ecstacy, and with no pacifier in sight.

I saw the same thing in a movie called "Baby Boy" years ago.

That movie was hiliarious, a must see.  Ving Rhames was great, and the baby mama drama was off da chain.....

When people come down off exctacy they get a sucking urge. My daughter, who used to cashier in the grocery store in town, said she knew who the X-heads were because they came in periodically buying pacifiers. No shit.

Don't know but maybe that has something to do with it.

I saw a woman as a patient once who was 23 and in with mummy. She had a cold. She was clutching her blanky, her stuffed bear, curled up in a fetal position and sucking her fucking thumb. Some people are just plain messed up.

From past experience...its not a sucking urge that gets people on X to the pacifier; its to keep you from grinding your teeth and clenching your jaws.  Gum, candy, etc. also helps

It's not uncommon to see that in ethnic adults, most notable in the south. Messes up their teeth something awful. See it frequently.

Yep, saw it a few hours ago on Fox.  I thought it was strange also.

Just makes me want to say something that would get this thread locked and maybe my account suspended.

I gotta say that the way some people live they remain children and not responsible for anything that happens to them.

You're right, though, it's right there in the looks on their faces...crying, and screaming....etc.

It's sad what the Democrats have done to these people but I'm never too surprised that many don't vote.
