A couple weeks ago, I posted a clip from NatGeo’s “Taboo” that detailed grossly obese 30-year-old Stanley Thornton’s “adult baby” fantasy, which he lives out with the help of his grossly obese roommate, Sandra Dias. Neither have a job, and both collect Social Security checks. That got the attention of Senator Tom Coburn (R-Okla.), one of Congress’s premiere waste-watchers.
“Given that Mr. Thornton is able to determine what is appropriate attire and actions in public, drive himself to complete errands, design and custom-make baby furniture to support a 350-pound adult and run an Internet support group, it is possible that he has been improperly collecting disability benefits for a period of time,” Mr. Coburn wrote in a letter Monday to Inspector General Patrick P. O’Carroll Jr. [Washington Times]
I won’t get into the caveat necessary for a Moonie newspaper, but the Times emailed Thornton for a response, and it is nothing short of sublime.
“You wanna test how damn serious I am about leaving this world, screw with my check that pays for this apartment and food. Try it. See how serious I am. I don’t care,” the California man said. “I have no problem killing myself. Take away the last thing keeping me here, and see what happens. Next time you see me on the news, it will be me in a body bag.”
No, Stanley. Wait. Come back. Please stay on this planet. Please let us keep paying taxes to support you. I can’t imagine my life being happy without knowing that your 350-pound body is shoved into a diaper and pretending to be the baby of your horrific blob of a roommate. I couldn’t possibly go on living without your model of strength and perseverance.

Why is he drinking piss in the picture?
`Cause it’s sterile and he likes the taste.

Dodgeball references are a rare commodity these days.
“Next time you see me on the news, it will be me in a body bag.”
I have no problem paying for the body bag if it means saving tax payer dollars. Seriously, why is this fat fuck receiving supplemental security?
Whining – check. Tantrum – check.
This dude never breaks character. He’s like the Daniel Day-Lewis of perverts.
What a fucking baby.
Here’s hoping he really sacks up and goes for the murder/suicide. Too harsh?
If he commits suicide, would that be considered SIDS?
Well, just a second there, professor. We fixed the glitch. So he won’t be receiving a paycheck anymore, so it’ll just work itself out naturally.
I believe that would be the rare 52nd trimester abortion, Tex.
Fuck this douchebag.
I hope he goes through with his threat. But he better not try to starve himself to death. We can’t wait that long.
So a person who is useless and contributes nothing to society as a whole threatens to kill himself. What’s the problem? As long as he gets buried in an infant Juggalo casket, I;m all for it.
Does that count as a verbal contract? He has to commit suicide if they take away his check right? If not, I say we file a class action suit for breach of contract?
Warming Glow Commenters v Disgusting Adult Baby Man is the new Roe v Wade.
Next time we see him on the news a crane will be removing him via a hole in the wall some firemen just cut because his fat ass fused to his custom high-chair from being a lazy perverted fuck stick. Please “screw with” his check, I would love to “test” him. That would be a TLC show I would watch.
If ever there was a time for a “People Who Should Be Burned For Fuel” tag…
That’s gonna be one big ass body bag.
That’s gonna be one big ass body bag.
Eh, they can just use a tarp from Dodger Stadium.
God forbid anyone “screws” with his hardworking taxpayer’s money that allows him to play with legos and shit himself in a socially acceptable way.
they should explode his bloated corpse like the whale on the beach. on July 4th.
He’s well enough to design and build furniture, but he can’t work? Shenanigans! That’s like taking a sick day and going shopping. Every day. Always.
Just send the Hound after him and get it over with.
Since my tax money got us here…I’m willing to buy you a razor blade and the Radiohead cd that puts an end to it.
He builds furniture and has web skills. He could make a living like that.
So THAT’S what Ralphie May has been up to lately!
Can we also fire whoever’s job it is to oversee things like why this guy is still getting paid? Someone has to sign off on it, lets fire that guy, and his boss too.
Jeez, give him a time-out already. 5 to 10 should do it. See how a baby fetish goes over in prison.
Is the the only time when it’s appropriate to make dead baby jokes?
……. just kidding, they’re always appropriate.
Can we really argue that he isn’t disabled? He thinks he is a baby. You want baby to make your hamburgers after baby’s bottom is itchy with diaper rash and he has been scratching it all day?
Maybe they should just drown him in a bathtub like any responsible parent would.
Can someone please get Susan Smith a work furlough?
@Otto, I think the tarp for Dodgers Stadium is already being used as a body bag for all the people their fans have beat to death
I wouldn’t call this a threat. More of a generous offer, if you ask me.
Stanley – do it.
If only more welfare recipients would take this approach to life.
What? Like you weren’t thinking it too.

@Chris – Vodka Collins: References to my favorite novels on my favorite blog (I consider this FilmDrunk’s younger, just-as-hot sister), and no one had to consult me? This is totally serendipitous!
I lost my job when I was a college student paying my way through school, and I got turned down for unemployment because me being in school to get an education interfered with me finding a job in the state’s view. Apparently, what I should have said I was doing with my day was shitting myself and eating out of a bottle. The more you know…*starwipe*
You people are cruel, sick and depraved and you beat me to all the good zingers.
A fat, attention starved, suicide-threatening asshole – we call them Emos. Nothing new to see here.
Q: What do you get when you throw a baby down the stairs?
A: A hard-on
Q: What does this guy get when he shits his adult diaper?
A: A hard-on
Somebody needs to shake this baby like a Polaroid picture. Remember Stanley…go up the road, not across the street if you’re gonna do it right.
TIME TO DIE!!! FAT ASS!!!
Die, then. It sucks that I can’t get help but this fat bastard gets help for doing nothing? Yeah, time for this cow to fall down the stairs.
Oh man, I watched that episode of Taboo. He creeped me out (and his ‘mother’).
His website is even worse. You can see his shelfari page, the top shelf has books about Indigo Children (google it, it is quite amusing). Which explains some of his attitude.
I…uh…oh…damn….is this for real? There is no God, Stanley, because when He found out He created you, He quit. Kill yourself if you want. There will be nobody to meet you on the other side.
I have saw many of this type guy, all around me are spoiled misguided lazy piecies of crap sitting home and will not work. A product of being overly protective and giving them no responsibilities as a kid and seeing to their every need. Usless piecies of crap. It would not bother me to see them all executed and many of these sell drugs. I am so sick of the Government handing out welfare to healthy people or people that could be healthy if they worked. I would be so ashamed to do this. While I am at it! Many times I have been in grocery stores and see someone pulling around three grocery carts rounded over with the best of everything when I am deciding if I could afford grapse after the 20th visit to the store. These people are mostly black and wearing the finest clothes and heavy gold chains and watches etc. Best cell phones and paying with food stamps and when they go outside they get in a new Cadallic Escalade … I have saw this too many times, Some whites can get this good also. I saw this year a man who , I better not tell you that I could wind up dead. anyway. Police arrest drug dealers and turn them loose and it is now big busisness and government can’t controll it if they are using it for revenue. I say start with one prision and make it where everyone works their ass off every day and learns skills and does hard time if they possess drugs. if they sell drugs hang them High. Yes hang them stop this tender care and don’t listen to these old biddies that don’t know anything. Think about it dear your grandchildren could be next to get on drugs or perhaps they are now so you want to protect them. We should never be sparing the rod. Politics: If there is found a corrupt person serving the public if he is found guilty hang hin/her also. Stop this mamby pamby sissified crap of treatment of people that are guilty. Hang them and the drug problems will go away
Umm… would Hasta La Vista BABY be appropriate?

Those of us with actual serious physical illnesses that we did not ask for like cancer, fibromyalgia, CVID, etc cannot get any support. We continue to have to force ourselves to get up and go to work, no matter how badly we are feeling because I guess we don’t know how to work the system. Or wait, maybe it’s because we were raised by the right kind of parents who taught us that you work to take care of yourself and your family. Get a job you lazy SOB and you can suck on whatever you want AFTER you get off at 5:00. That way there would be money for the really SICK people who have worked until their illness makes it impossible.
And to the poster John Fisher —- hear hear brother! More people should believe like you and not have the fear to say it. Bless you!
Don’t worry, guys. I got this.

“Moonie newspaper”? How old are you, Matt,5? The Times is a well established highly respected newspaper. Yes it was begin by the “moonies”. So what? They have done a lot for many countries. What have you done?
