small world (in tokyo)
![]()
[Click on image to enlarge etc.]
Chris Heathcoate, a British blogger who works for Nokia in Helsinki [I hung out with him at Reboot last year in Copenhagen], was recently in the Hotel Miyako in Tokyo, when he went into the hotel men’s room. There he stumbled across a framed gapingvoid print. Small world.
[Back story:] The manager of the hotel is an old friend of my cousin. The former bought the print off me a few years ago.
The best way to support gapingvoid is to sign up to
"Hugh's Daily Frickin' Cartoon" Newsletter.
A new cartoon sent out every weekday morning to your inbox [RSS version here.].
A wee chuckle to start your day off right etc.







Small world, indeed. Or big microbrand. Something. Pretty cool, anyway.
But you realize, of course, that you’ve now handed documented ammunition to those who’ve branded your cartoons in the past as bathroom humor.
Hi Hugh
This was funny – the first thing that blew my little jetlagged mind in Tokyo. It’s a nice hotel, too. I’d love to know what the clientele make of the cartoons
Anyway, still at Nokia, still in Helsinki, and should be at Reboot again this year.
