I've overslept twice in the past two weeks and it is the worst feeling in the world. I woke up, realized what time it was, and THREW myself out of bed. Like a cartoon. This should not happen. I need an alarm clock to wake me UP. Here's 8 of the most strangely tricked out alarm clocks that can give you the audible nudge to push your sleepy eyes to the shower and the coffee pot.
8. Clock Sheets
You don't even have to get up, just roll over to see what time it is. But sleep too hard and you could walk into work with the time imprinted on your face. (via)
7. World's Loudest Alarm Clock
You won't oversleep much because after using this for a week you will stop sleeping all together for fear of being startled to death. (via)
6. Clockman: The Emotional Clock
When you push the button on his head, Clockman tells you what time it is and then changes his face and tells you how he feels. He's a friend and a clock. (via)
5. Chumby
The Chumby is an online alarm clock that plays internet radio, online content, and has over 1,000 web based widgets. And it's touch screen. When I was a kid, we called these alarm clocks "computers". (via)
4. The Emily Sideways Alarm
Perfect for lying on your side and seeing what time it is. And if you also mount books and photos next to it sideways, you'll have the MC Esherist nightstand around. (via)
3. Seiko Ocean Theater
Also known as the Little Mermaid LSD Flashback Clock. I think James Cameron slept with this for years before he made The Abyss. (via)
2. Wordclock
The hippest, smartest clock. Allow 10 extra minutes to wake up so you can make out the words and figure out what time it actually is. "Twentyyyyy to eight iss...7:20? No...Unghhh..." (via)
1. The World's Largest Bed Alarm Clock
Of course this one would win. It is a little old, but I've seen nothing that would make me want to oversleep less. Really, this makes me want to sleep on the floor.
