Tyrant Alarm Clock: Get Up or I'll Call Your Mom

2008_07_03 tyrant-alarm-clock.jpgWe have seen our share of cruel alarm clocks, but this one takes the cake. So much so that we would probably wake up before the alarm went off out of fear and the thought of humiliation.

Known as the Tyrant, definitely a fitting name, this alarm clock pairs with your cell phone...and your contact list. For every three minutes that the alarm clock remains ringing, your cell phone will dial a random number. If that doesn't get you out of bed, your ex calling back asking why you are ringing them at 6 AM certainly will.

My son uses what he calls the nuclear alarm clock. It has a mechanical bell that will leave you shell-shocked, and he puts it in his bath room closet---so he has to get out of bed to turn it off. When he lived at home, I got him out of bed by threatening to dump a handful of frozen marbles under the covers. That worked too :)

I cant help but wonder what might bring one to consider putting marbles in the fridge in the first place, let alone using them as a threat in handful quantities.
