Thurber-esque


Someone drew this nicotine-addicted rabbit, who looks suspiciously like an editor, on the whiteboard in a conference room at work. Doesn’t it look like a James Thurber cartoon? (But he’s long dead, so we can’t credit him.)

The whiteboards are supposed to be cleaned every Friday, but that rabbit has been there for weeks. I think the cleaning crew is just being lazy, but I'm glad they’ve left him alone. I’ve even taking to maintaining him personally. Every once in a while someone writes notes or a comment on the board around the rabbit, and after a while I go in and erase them, leaving him in skeptical silence once again.

How very cool to have your own pet rabbit at work. No rabbit pellets to clean up -- even better!

My guess is he might reappear if he were ever erased!

White boards create the opportunity for indoor street art.

The rabbit is so cool. Maybe ya'll need a new white board for notes and stuff.

I'm sure the cleaning crew loves the drawing as much as you do.
