Imagine it's early in the morning. You are in your cozy bed, dreaming about the time before recession. You have a job, you own a house, a plasma TV, a Ford Mustang, an iPhone and of course latest Hasselblad (Okay, the last one only happens in my dream). I mean, you are dreaming an American dream (minus good looking spouse). And right then the alarm clock goes off. You twist and turn and try to snooze the clock but can't. The clock doesn't have snooze or off button. The only way for making it stop screaming is by feeding/depositing some money in it. It's not fantasy. This clock is designed to do exactly that. The idea behind it: save money.
And what if I say this isn't the worse. This clock here is designed to donate money to a charity you hate every time you hit the snooze button. Me thinks, this can be a very good test for strength of your convictions, political or otherwise. Like, how anti- anti-LGBTs are you (the two anti-s are intentional. And here two negatives do make a plus unlike American English)? Or how much you hate Republicans? and so on..
I am not sure how many clocks each of these clock-types ever sold, that is, if any. I don't think I will be a willing buyer. I love my sleep and don't want to put a price on it. How about you?
