Oral Fixation Fixation: Difference between revisions

** He took it out as a reward to his fans on the score page for the second popularity poll, after placing somewhere around eighth. The [[Breaking the Fourth Wall]] [[Lampshade Hanging]] in the Dark Tournament made [[Chekhov's Gun|its role in the late stages of the Sensui arc]] play a lot better.

* Jack, from ''[[Shanghai Youma Kikai]]'', is literally never seen without a cigarette.

* ''[[Hatsukoi Limited]]'' has Misaki Yamamoto and her habit of having a lollipop in her mouth.

** With the reasoning being that the guy who first stuck one in her mouth could be her first crush.

* Kyouko, in ''[[Puella Magi Madoka Magica]]'' is always shown eating snack foods, and even fights with a piece of [[Pocky]] in her mouth.

* Amaimon in ''[[Blue Exorcist]]'' almost always has either a lollipop or one of his fingernails in his mouth.

** And then of course there's Matches Malone.

* ''[[Lucky Luke]]'' originally smoked, until he traded his cigarette for a blade of grass.

** Lampshaded in ''Marcel Dalton'': "Cigar? -I stopped. -I forgot. Blade of grass? -No thanks, I'm stopping."

* In IDW's version of Transformers, Kupp is given a cigar-like piece of metal that he chews on.

* Dr. Will Magnus, creator of the ''[[Metal Men]]'', is hardly ever seen without a pipe in his mouth. During ''52'', he admits that he doesn't smoke, and that the pipe is "just to chew on." Another character directly namedrops this as an oral fixation.

 

== [[Film]] ==

* Telly Savalas's character in ''Lisa and the Devil'' alternates between lollipops and cigarettes—to comic effect, at first, but it gets creepier as the film goes on. Since it's [[Kojak|Telly]] one gathers that it's a [[Shout-Out]] all the way through.

* In the "Two A-Holes..." sketch series from ''[[Saturday Night Live]]'', the title characters go around constantly chewing gum. In one sketch, they were told to take their gum out. They did so, but their mouth motions continued anyway, apparently out of habit.

* DJ from ''[[Sh15uya]]'' seems very fond of lollipops, too.

** D.I. Peter Carlisle in the BBC miniseries ''[[Blackpool]]'' is almost always eating, & also played by [[David Tennant]]. More [[Fan Service]] here.

** Plus, he licks his lips in a very manic way when playing Barty Crouch Junior, so it's probably a Tennant thing. On the commentary for the second series episode "The Impossible Planet", David Tennant stops the conversation dead when he says that he wants to chew on the Ood tentacles... and then describes what they would feel like in his mouth. In detail.

* Dr Chase from ''[[House (TV series)|House]]'' seems to be constantly putting pens in his mouth, especially in the earlier seasons.

* Red and most other Caninu of ''[[Solatorobo]]'' tend to like chewing on bones, and even have a variety of [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GaEiJb1UPSY bite styles] to express different personalities. Apparently, girls are considered [[Japanese Delinquents|delinquints]] [http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__jUtxBOsFyg/TNs9bvGuSqI/AAAAAAAABKQ/ku9h7HkA7cM/s1600/03.png if they walk around chewing on them].

 

== [[Web Comics]] ==

* Jet from ''[[Avatar: The Last Airbender]]'' constantly chews on and holds a blade of grass in his mouth, but he loses it along with much of his [[badass]]ery when he {{spoiler|gets brainwashed.}} [[Genre Savvy|Sokka]] even tries to see if replacing it would help. It doesn't.

{{quote|- "[[Avatar: The Abridged Series|If we weren't TV-Y7, this would totally be a cigarette]]."}}
