"For drowsy train commuters afraid of sleeping past their stop, inventor and manga artist Pyocotan has developed “Noriko-san,” a sleep mask with an electronic scrolling display that communicates the wearer’s destination to fellow passengers.
Noriko-san is designed to give sleepyheads greater peace of mind (and thus a deeper level of sleep) by increasing the odds that a stranger will wake them in time. In theory, other passengers feel compelled to act either out of courtesy or simply so they can sit in the empty seat left behind."
Really?? You know what we call sleeping passengers on the train where I'm from?? "victims"
Let's just say I'm not armed and don't plan on stealing this man's Sears card... I certainly plan on fuckin with him and waking him up one stop too late. Why not? That's a pretty cheap price to pay considering.
Hey we'd all like a little catnap/good Samaritan combo but such is life.
