Alarm Clocks a thing of the Past? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

TVFactFan · 07-03-2007, 11:57 PM

I was about to buy one because the one I have dies on me and then realized I can use the Reminder on my phone service to wake me up at 7am and as far as knowing what time it is My phone shows the Time, my VCR/DVD player shows the Time, and mt Cable Box shows the time. So do we really need Alarm clocks anymore?-lol

As a night owl, I have never been a fan of alarm clocks.

At least the alarm part. I love the big digital display clocks, just so you know what time it is.

I just use my phone. Indeed, as far as I'm concerned I don't need a traditional alarm.

I have that feature on my phone service, but I prefer my Ipod player which has FM/AM Radio availability. I like falling asleep to music and waking up to music, and now with the Ipod player by my side, I can use my Ipod to wake up to.

My body is my alarm clock I can't sleep past 5-5:30 no matter what.

Kay Scarpetta · 07-04-2007, 04:34 PM

I just set my phone, that is, if I'm not up the whole night anyway.

I still need an alarm clock. My phone doesn't have the ability to make my bed vibrate (they make alarm clocks for deaf/hard of hearing people that comes with a disc-shaped mattress vibrator that, duh, you slide under the mattress) and wake me up in the morning.

I still use the old wind up alarm clock. I've been using one for years.

I always use an alarm clock. Mine is very loud and I need something loud to wake me up.

Crimson and Clover · 07-05-2007, 02:54 PM

I Love John Ritter · 07-06-2007, 01:30 AM

I've never really needed an alarm but if I did I could just use my cell phone--it's loud enough to wake me up.

Before I moved from Spokane, I set my television set in my bedroom to turn on at a certain time in the morning. Now I use the alarm clock on my cell phone.
