Ladies and gents, we regret to inform you that sleeping in has just become even harder. We all have a long history of fighting the oppression that stripped us of our warm blankets and secluded comas that began as a child when our parents had to drag us out of bed for school. When we were in college (and of course not skipping class), we had our trusting annoying alarm clocks. Nowadays, we all use our phones to wake us up to songs we onced love but have grown to hate after several Sunday mornings (by the way, we recommend Michael Jackson songs, you can only hit snooze twice before you find yourself moonwalking to your shower).
So back to the point...
Technology has once again reinvented an age old problem with the Alarm clock pillow Seung Jun Jeong (try saying his name 3x fast). You simply set the desired time of wake, when it arrives on the time the pillow will begin to vibrate and essentially wake you up (doesn't that hurt?). That is, only if you don't end up chucking it out your window and into Cairo traffic. While the idea and design are both renovating, fresh, and brilliant....with our late night hours, we're dreading it's effectiveness.
Will it actually work? That's our question!
Oh well, it looks like we'll have an edge in the next pillow fight.
