The Art of Sleeping in Public; Oh Yes! On the strength Ima let it be known, sleeping in public is a slept on art form that should never be disregarded or ignored. Let’s face it, sleeping in public is completely mooked-out and there’s no way to disagree. Mooks recognize mooks and we finna glorify all forms of mooked out activities worldwide. You gotta give props to the real champs.

Understand that not every individual who chooses to sleep in public is necessarily homeless, though the majority of them are. Most of these people don’t have much of a choice, but you can’t disagree with the fact that some expose their bodies with more elegance than others and that’s what we’re here to point out today.

My fascination with sleeping in public has always been very significant in my life. It can be spotted everywhere, you just got to keep your eyes open. The following pictures were all taken in Montreal, Toronto, New York City, Berlin, Barcelona, Valparaiso, San Jose, Ciudad Bolivar and Caracas.

First and foremost, we can’t forget Maurice, our favorite OG Montreal veteran. Look at him, what a boss! His belly sticks out with elegance and his swagger is unfuckwithable. Keep your eyes open and watch out for this exclusive street walrus. He can easily be found at Snowdown metro station almost everyday and if not, he should be easy to locate somewhere uptown.

In a city like Montreal where the weather is vigorous 6 months a year, the metro stations are the best place for anyone to do some public sleeping. During the winter, you can easily catch someone sleeping in almost every metro station!

I’m always very excited each time I take the metro. My heart is filled with joy and pride and my emotions are always lit up. We are extremely lucky to have such a great sleeping in public watching scene out here in our metro system.

Russians never smile but they sleep in public. Try working for Publi-Sac at 4 AM then going to your second job where you weld mufflers on St-Jacques for another 8 hours. Regardless of financial status, this Russian sleeps with grace in this classic head holding position. On some Pushkin shit.

Asians work hard and sleep hard. This woman did not wake up once for about 12 stops. It’s as if she’s got this special radar that alerts her right before her station. Only Built For Sleeping Chinks.

I wonder if these mooks have shifts. Like bum #1 gets this bench on Mondays and Thursdays from 1:30pm to 6. Then bum #2 comes through and kicks him out for his turn. I’m sure that there is some sort of system because this bench seems to be popular and I never see them fighting for it. Go figure.

I can understand that you had a long and hard day and that you’re tired and you finna go sleep somewhere, OK. But on the real, some players select their sleeping grounds with impressive originality. I have always been fascinated by the position that the individual takes before passing out. Why would you sleep in this position? What pushes you to select specifically this square meter rather than any other one nearby?

Duke definitely gets The EF stamp of approval for blocking the passengers way while sleeping head down right in front of the stairs.

The Staten Island Ferry schedule, which is not always on point, leads many individuals to take public naps.

Its funny how some bums can afford Clark Wallabees but can’t afford rent. Not even a blanket!

Here you can see the whole Toronto bum staff enjoying a great siesta with stolen computer chairs in a downtown park. 100% Mook-Life approved!

This is a picture of me. Catch me completely drunk at 2 in the afternoon in a gas station somewhere in a random village in Quebec. Sometimes alcohol abuse can cause some to sleep in public spaces.

Downtown camping is also a form of sleeping in public, but it’s a bit more sophisticated and discrete.

It seems like this man is having breakfast in bed. Orange juice and flowers in plastic bottles. Holy shit! That’s a tea party in full effect!

Sleepin’ in public watching is a big touristic attraction in Valparaiso, Chile.

Sabana Grande, Caracas. Yup, there you go buddy, just make yourself at home. So Bosssss! Just try not to stretch your legs too much or you’ll kick that girl in the arse.

Comfort is everything.

In New York, when you’re lucky, you might catch a sidewalk sale from which you may benefit from the comfort of a cozy couch. Yerppppp

Ventilation technology is revolutionary in the sleeping in public game when it comes to providing oneself with extra warmth. A piece of cardboard will also assure your head comfort so you’re all set. Cheeeeeers Wooooday!

Hustle all night, sleep all day.

HTO: There you have it. This art form was not neglected and has been documented and shared. The type of shit you will only find on Mook-Life. Big shout out to all the mooks sleeping in public around the world. Whether it’s just a little weed nap or a life long thing it takes a mook to do it. Also, I would like to give a gigantic FUCK YOU to all the people who are responsible for them anti-bum benches where they have metal separators in the middle so that bums don’t sleep on them. For Christ sake… as if being a bum and living on the streets was not enough. Now they don’t even want them sleeping in public. Total bullshit. For what? Who really cares if a bum is sleeping in a down town park? Who does it hurt? Who are these people that are so offended by sleeping bums? Is this where my fucking taxes go? Makes you think about our priorities as a society. The roads have meteor sized craters in them and these motherfuckers are installing anti bum benches around town. Seriously… go fuck yourself and everyone in your family while falling off of a tall cliff.
