My Alarm Clock

April 24, 2009 Impressive

This is the alarm clock I’ve used since I was about 13.  I see no reason to change it because it works fine.  Thanks ’90s.

Update:  Reply to the first comment and an additional picture of my Nickelodeon lamp which is also present on my nightstand.

    Ya, that’ll get you laid.

  2. AssholeFucker says:

    This is definitely photoshopped… it’s easy to tell since the pixels don’t line up like they would in a non-shopped picture. I think I would know, I’ve seen many shops in my lifetime.

  3. FGY says:

    I had that when I was a kid.
    Fun Memories. :)

    BAD. ASS.

  5. RuNo Gravatar says:

    Oh my god, I used to have the same thing when I was younger. I wonder why I threw it away. It worked so much better than the one I have now.

  6. MoshjoshNo Gravatar says:

    Epic. Its graphical style reminds me of “Saved by the Bell”s opening credits.

  7. kz says:

    dude, I’ve used that clock since I was six. It was a Christmas present.

    Just stumbled on this, and had to comment because I haven’t seen a Nickelodeon alarm since I got rid of mine in the ’90s. Brings back memories.

    Dear “AssholeFucker”,

    Excuse me, Mr. Butt Pirate, but I must say… this is most definitely NOT photoshopped. What breed of imbecile are you?

    This reply is photoshopped. It’s not text; it’s a solid image imitating lines of text. If you’re able to select portions of this text with your mouse or mouth, like you usually can with text, then this is also a virus, and illegal drugs.

  83. Ludoface says:

    I used to have one of these as well when i was younger.

    however the flashing lights and the way the sounds blasted through the speakers, often shocked me awake to the point of having seizures on a few occasions.
    thusly, I had to get rid of it.

    Glad to see someone is still using one though! I loved that thing regardless.

  84. Luce CannonNo Gravatar says:

    Very cool. I saw this, thought, “I gotta get one of these for my kids” because they’re really into older novelty things (aka- I refuse to let them get into modern toys aimed at children). Check ebay. I found two, neither of which was under $40. Wow. Be happy you kept yours, and in good condition.

    • ImpresserNo Gravatar says:

      You know, yesterday when this post first went up they were under 20 bucks on ebay. This post has jumped the market value, so wait until things die down and check again.

      • Luce CannonNo Gravatar says:

        I’ll have to make a mental note to do that. Funny how that happens. Neat as it is, I won’t be paying $50. Maybe at some point, it’ll be a bit better.

  109. walrus says:

    My alarm clock, while not as…colorful…as that one is my oldest possession and in fact dates back to the early eighties. I’ve thought about getting a new one from time to time, but then it does what an alarm clock is supposed to, tell time and wake me up. Plus, I’m keen to see how long it will last. I think it might survive me.

  110. Thomas says:

    I had the same alarm clock. Counts down before it starts playing bugle music, right? Big red button is the snooze, the wavy line lights up. Man that think was awesome.

    Don’t let anyone knock your clock man, it works better than most I have found AND it still works.

    Of course now any time I hear the Nickelodeon slogan I cringe.
    Yea I’m 24 now.

    I so totally used to have this.
    Mine unfortunately did stop working, the alarm stopped sounding.
    I’m sad about it too, I would totally love to have this again.

    I have this too! I was actually thinking about digging it out of my parents basement before I move. It was a great alarm clock, though I do remember the “Ni-ni-ni-nick nick nick Nickelodeon!” alarm got pretty annoying after awhile.

    Oh man! I had that clock until I was 20 or so. There was a song in 2Xtreme for the PS1 that had a little bit that sounded like the little countdown on this clock, and every time I heard it, I would shudder.

    somewhere and isn’t this picture more
    about the novelty of the clock and not
    the location?

    4.) I kind of miss it now that I’m older…

    And the count down before the loud noise is one of my favorite things. It gives me a chance to get up and shut it up before it gets too loud.
