When I wake up, I wake up ANGRY. Enough to start slinging stuff around, gorilla mad. This alarm clock has been good enough to run off my nightstand for me to find it, and has survived being thrown down stairs probably over 100 times. It’s durable and despite the scuffs, still pisses me off in the morning.
I actually heard about this on a podcast at one point. The father gave this to one of his kids because they wouldn’t wake up in the morning. Instead, the kid STILL doesn’t get up but, now, because the kid is on the 2nd floor and the father is on the 1st floor, he can hear the alarm clock as it rolls of the kid’s night stand and starts bouncing/rolling around on the floor. Guess it kind of backfired…
