So you want to sleep at work. I can't say that's the brightest idea in the world, but who am I to judge? Let me help you out: if you want to sleep at your desk and also look really, really creepy while awake, all you need to do is buy some of these eye stickers. Slap 'em on your closed eyelids, learn to sleep sitting up, and you'll be sure to fool everyone who walks by your desk. There is absolutely no way for this plan to fail… trust me.

a la Cptn Jack?
I want some for the whole office!
What do I do about the snoring and drooling?
HAHA!
comment not even necessary.
gimme gimme gimme
for the snoring and drooling...you can probably say you have some sort of advanced flue. or something like that.
I totally trust you. How could you like to me when you're looking straight into my eyes like that?
Hey...wait a minute!!!
That guy looks like he has a brain-tumor behind his eyes and they are about to just pop out.
lol googly eyes
They may be convincing from a distance, but it you check out the image, it looks like Linda at the next desk is starting to get suspicious... you can't fool Linda forever.
@DarthGator:
just practice snoring and drooling while you're awake. everyone will just think "oh, it's just that guy who snores and drools while he's awake" while you put your eyelid stickers to work.
I think he has them on the wrong eye...and upside down.
@Geisrud: Nah. Capt. Sparrow does it with extra style and suaviness.
Jesus Christ, first thing I thought of was "What the hell is wrong with that guys eyes" but then after a few more seconds I realized what I was looking at.
I guess they work.
That would improve the look of a few co-workers I know.
Wow, he looks possessed. Creepy! I'd be better off learning to sleep with my eyes open.
haha, I like this one. It seems like an easy way to get a laugh.
@tutelary: yeah, why the heck doesn he have them on upside down. hahahahah
If you're going to enter this BOOMING product market I suggest you avoid falling into such eyelid-sticker-to-look-like-I'm-awake-while-really-I'm-sleeping-at-work pitfalls like "Devil Eyes" or "I could be awake-sleeping- or just possessed"
@babaki: he doesn't have them on upside down. His eyes are closed. The lashes on the bottom of the "fake" eyes are his real lashes.
Anyway, I want it just so I can be creepy at work xD
The natural look of a 3D model from Splinter Cell.
So the real question...where do i order them?
sweet, i always wanted to be asian!
might be able to pull this off if you wore some gaudy glasses that took attention away from the actual eye balls
I guess I'll throw my Homer Simpson jury duty glasses out.
haha! and then your colleague will spread the rumor that you have a freak disease of not blinking!!
@Git Em SteveDave:
I can't belive it took 20 comments for someone to make the Simpsons refernce.
I'll take two copies for the Monday morning staff meetings. At the very least, even if not sleeping, I can still freak people out with them.
Yay to those of us who sleep with their eyes wide open...
Like some sort of crafty wizard. Yes, that's it.
@Kos: Me too. Especially after the monorail article below.
OK heres the secret. Buy some visine. Put your head on your desk and go to sleep. When someone wakes you grab your visine and say your eyes are killing you and ask them if the visine worked.
LOL!!! Made my lunch break!
I could have used these in high school
man, thank you. I haven't laughed this hard in a good long while.
@scoobyonline2000: I would think an advanced flue would actually improve air quality, and help with soot particles, leading to less snorting & drooling. Oh wait. Maybe you aren't talking about chimneys. But if you have a sparrow's nest in your chimney... then you might have bird flue!!! OK. I'm shutting the hell up.
I don't supposed those stickers are particularly thin. What happens when you wake up and open your real eyes? All of a sudden you are a four eyed freak.
Like a doll's eyes.
I almost got caught sleeping at work once. I was dozing off at a lab when my boss walked in. Took my a while to notice he was there. Then I quietly said "Amen."
OMG! Rob's now ASIAN! ROB! ROB! YOUR EYES! MY GOD, WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOUR EYES!?
Ah Crap, the swelling on my eyelids finally went down after gettig them tattoed, and now you're telling me I could have just got stickers?
These are lame . . . everyone knows that using googley-eyes looks WAY more convincing.
On a side note, years ago I was sleeping in my office when the VP knocked on my door. I instantly raised my head and pretended to be working on a document on my computer. The VP came in and we chatted about the upcoming presentation for a couple of minutes until she asked what was on my forehead. She leaned in and started laughing when she realized I had an imprint in the shape of my watch. Oh well.
this looks really scary!!!
She's all like, "Hmmmm. If his head weren't so poorly rendered, I might ask him out."
zang dudes.
many moons ago, i was employed by a bank in the marketing department. in its infinite wisdom, they forced me to come in as a new employee on labor day. i was like...wtf? labor day? come on. nope. truth.
so i was out seeing a live band the night before like every other hip chick or dude my age. i went to work the next day tired as hell. but i went. my boss came in later that morning. and i thought "not only my weekend, but my boss too???" this company was all whacked out. so during my break, i went to the upstairs coffee room. nobody was in the building. nobody. so i set my watch alarm, turned out the lights and laid on the floor behind the table. tie and all. relaxing.
all of a sudden, the door opens, the lights go on and in walks a lady. i got up from behind the table and scared the holy hell out of this lady. she was obviously confused.
i got back to my desk bummed that i didn't get a little bit of rest on my break. soon my boss' phone rings and she leaves. she comes back and the next thing i know she's made an appointment for me to see a psychiatrist. yah! i know. it was either that or i resign my position. looking back, i should have just walked away, but it was decent pay at a prestigious bank. so i took the appointment.
needless to say...i didn't work there very long anyway.
Made me think of the old 3 Stooges flick, where Curly has eyes painted on his eyelids to make him look awake.
creepy, reminds me of "ringu"
This is what happens when you watch too many Aphex Twin videos.
Too bad those sticker eyes are missing eyelids.. that might look a bit off. Other then that, the perfect gift idea for the lazy worker.
Can you imagine the reaction from your female co-workers when you slap these babies on your eyes and start reaching around trying to "find something"?
ha ha thats like wearing the sunglasses with the eyes on them
hahaha, i need some for my friends in PI.
wtf that looks hella creepy
Nobody is gonna bother you if you have these on - even when you blink there's a set of eyeballs there - now to combine these with CAT EYE contact lenses and you're all set to freak out everyone.
I think I'm turning Japanese I think I'm turning Japanese I really think so...
duh nun nun nun nuh nuh nuh nuh naaaaa
>weekend for me> (no the first thingy isn't backwards)
Shave eyelashes = perfect!
I want those...
kool.. where can i buy these ?please let me know ..
@Rando: Ditto. Now I can use them in college!
Looks like a badly drawn CGI character in some shitty game.
Do they come in not-David-Blaine?
If you dozed with these stickers on, drolled and snored you'll easily pass for the office-idiot.
does that come in round-eye?
@encyclia: Thank you...I couldn't believe that no one referenced the stooges. That was the first thing I was reminded of as well. I remember quite a few episodes where they pulled this off.
Good stuff! But I wouldn't recommend using these if you value your job, obviously. Haha.
Wow what a great invention , especially when this was made 20 years ago. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that the ad campaign was racist and threw an Asian woman in the background to say that "OH LOOK AT DA CHING CHONG THAT CANT TELL THAT HE'S FAKING IT!" Stupid marketing campaigns these days. They throw minorities in so they don't get sued, but they throw em in with the worst parts.
Artist Karin Campbell performed "When I Close My Eyes…" back around 2001, in which she sits in conversation with visitors, images of eyes painted on her closed eyelids.
Also Man Ray made Emak-Bakia back in 1926:
It's not sleeping if it's art!
