I have one of those iPod docking alarm clocks. You can’t help but wake up when a Nine Inch Nails song suddenly starts playing at high volume.

my phone lets me set 1 wake up, and 6 extras.
i use them all, like this:
4:00am, 4:30am, 5:00am, 5:30am, 6:00am, 6:30am, 7:00am.
I get up, usually.
It also helps when i set each one to a different yet equally-annoying ringtone.
Including preset ringtones, the steel samurai theme and the blue badger song! (*for “Ace Attorney” fans everywhere!*)

I’ve got a program on my laptop that wakes me up. I also found out it works a lot louder if I run twenty instances of the program. any more than that, though, and it’s annoying to hit all the turn off buttons.

hey thats exactly the same thing i do! my phone has 5 alarms though, but i only set three. mine are half an hour apart, starting at 6 30.
i have a bad habit of waking up 1 minute before my 7 30 alarm goes off.

although on days that i REALLY wanna wake up on time, i set all 5 alarms, 5 minutes apart, my electric alarm clock (which i never seem to have set up) and my battery powered analogue alarm (you know the ones with the two bells that get hit really really fast?) AND my DS alarm.
if 8 alarms dont wake me, then my dad usually gets me up.

my alarm clock is an electric clock that has 2 alarms, and will never shut off unless you shut it off. i tested it one day, and just let it go. after hearing the annoying beeping for more than an hour, i finally got fed up with it, and shut it off

I use my cellphone as an alarm clock, i always leave it out of reach so i have to get up to turn it off, if i don’t i turn it off in my sleep (half-awake i guess but i have no memory of ever turning it off.”

Sometimes though i wake up a couple of minutes before the alarm goes off, which is weird.

I absolutely can’t STAND those back-up alarms! My other half sets about a half dozen of them … and often stumbles groggily to the shower after the first one or two, forgetting to deactivate the later ones. I’m a light sleeper to begin with, so him getting out of bed is enough of a disturbance — if I have to actually reach over, open his phone, and select the precise code of buttons that deactivates the alarms, I’m fully awake and not getting back to sleep anyways (despite the fact that I generally don’t have to be awake until an hour or two after he gets up).

This is my favorite "Wake up!" call.

I used to set all sorts of alarms in my bedroom when I was in high school. I usually got up at 5 AM.

Now that I’m heavily drugged, I get up whenever I feel I’m ready.
