And Sometimes You Are Just Too Tired
In the years I lived in Tokyo i never quite got over how comfortable people where with their public roads and transportation. On morning strolls i would see people passed out in bushes, sleeping on benches, and slumped over on parked bikes.
Sometimes you are just too tired… and need some solid sleep.
Wow.. Just think about all the reasons people in a westernized place of the world wouldn’t do that :p
Bloody asia.
You wake up and you are naked and all of your expensive stuff is gone.
i wish i had the guts to do that!!!!!! or i wish people would stop judging others. some ppl just need their sleep, man.
There’s no shame in resting in the gutter…. You just don’t want to wake up there……
Haha I’ve actually witnessed 1 stil alive and crawling on the streets. Even asked him to help, but he didnt want any lol.
Still im amazed people can sleep on the street, I cant close an eye in a noisy environment.
BTW I have my doubts about that last pic btw lol
Many of these people are probably drunk and simply passed out. I like the hat!
crazy. what is that red hard hat?is it actually for in case you fall asleep? if so, we need some of those bad boys here. no more wake up mid-yoyo neck. the business men asleep on the ground remind me of that radiohead music video-”just”. youtube it, you’ll see what i mean.
The sign on the hat includes her destination, and a polite request for her to be awakened when the train reaches that stop. The device is purpose built for people to sleep on the tube, is a genuine invention, and has featured on various UK TV programs as a “look what those crazy japs get up to!” segment.
thanx i was wondering bout that.
Too dangerous to sleep on any public domain.One might get run over,mugged,and of course to get the clothes dirty.
Lol, why not man? Why not just fall a sleep whenever and wherever you feel like.
I am trying to stop laughing so that I can write this. That red hard-hat thing…that is completely hilarious. Maybe all hats should come with a convenient suction cup in the back in case you want to take a snooze. I am just hoping that some of these people aren’t coming off , like, a 3 day ice methamphetamine high or something.
The one with the red hat is definitely fake, or at least a joke — taken from a book in chindoku (”unuseless inventions”). I’d think W.A.E would be all over that.
when i was living in tokyo i’d often see businessman passed out in the subway. no one hassled them and if they were blocking the way someone would usually help drag them off to the side.
it’s a result of all of the group drinking often done in companies there. if someone misses the train they often won’t go home because taxis are too expensive, so they’ll stay in a tiny ‘capsule’ hotel or try to catch some sleep wherever they can.
japanese are too much workaholic people
tired=sleep even in a such noisy environment
too much work = tiredness = less sex = less babies = declining population
tsk tsk tsk tsk
I have passed out in public places many times…. park benches… on the fairy… public busses… on the beach… at school… almost everywhere….
and I am about to pass out on my keyboard now…
I hope the fairy didn’t get upset when you fell asleep on him.
O_O ehhh?!
I can’t beleive it they are all out there face on drugs and not just us commoners but people in suits! like i said shocking maybe they should bring some of that relaxed atmosphere over here!!!!!!!!!!1
hahahaha well if ya got to sleep you got to sleep!
Seen this in Tokyo. Most are just drunk from boozing it up. Japanese are hard working but come Friday night all hell breaks loose. I’ve seen coworkers being dragged back to the train seriously drunk by 8:00PM. If you miss that midnight train then your stuck at the station sleeping on the floor. But no worries, crime rate is so low you can leave your brief case on the sidewalk and now one will touch it.
yaya is right, people in japan work extremely hard and the crime rate is ridiculously low.
ROFLMAO thats asia for you xD
