In movies and on TV (great sources, I know) they always show junkies having black marks under their fingernails and stuff. I'm wondering if this actually happens and mostly why? Is it actually dope accumulating under there or what?
 
It's because junkies are supposed to be "dirty" in the eyes of the modern media.

Dope does not "accumulate" anywhere that your eyes can see.

Yeah. Guesses as to what are dirt or carbon if they're heating.

I'm going to close this, as you got your answer and there really isn't more to discuss.
