thumb-thusiast

noun. One of our thumbs-uppiest or thumbs-downiest citizens.

Real citation: "Today is film critic and thumb-thusiast Roger Ebert's 65th birthday. He's still in recovery mode from his cancer struggles, but he's been writing reviews for a few weeks now, and we here at The...Pants wish the wonderful fella a very happy B-day!"

Made-up citation: "I never wanted to be known as a thumb-thusiast, Margaret. In my family, I was taught to never trust thumbs, under any circumstances. *gulp* Is that why I need them so much?"
