It depends. How often does SB just complete? How often does the button limp like this (a lot of players do it mostly to trap). How much have you been running over the table/what's their perception of you - is someone apt to be sick of you pushing them around and call you with a less than premium holding?

Etc., etc., etc.

I'd say it's okay to make a play like this every now and then (it's 12% of the chips on the table for free after all), but you have > 6 BB if you check and fold on the flop, so you probably want all the planets aligned (all factors in your favor) to make this play.

That button limp looks awful suspicious. Does he normally do that? If not I'm checking for sure.

For lack of more information, I hate it. You're up against a trap too often, with crappy outs.

But, it could be a solid play if the limper is an idiotic weakie.

He has done it a lot.

I still don't like my move.
