wtf is it with touching yourself at night? 😕

God doesn't like it when you touch yourself at night. Especially when you're so ashamed you have to wear a paper bag after doing it.
 
You might want to look at the Big Ben flashing alarm on amazon. If the flashing doesn't wake you up a loud audible alarm activates.

this is a good example on how corrupt ATOT is.
 
you need a cat. and a couple weeks to train the cat to expect breakfast an hour before you need to leave the house. 🙂

 
Yeah that always happens to me too. The alarm clock ringing just becomes part of my dream, and my brain just tunes it out.
 
but how can he fall asleep in the first place without touching himself. seems like you'll always have one problem at the end or the beginning.
 
i had 3 alarms.. 2 on the cell phone with 2 different ring tones.. basically after a while our brain shuts off the ringing tone.. and we dont hear it.. so change your ring tone on yoru cell often.

edit: if you dont have a cell phone, use teh radio as an alarm and on a station like talk radio and loud.. or if your thing plays a cd, use some cd.. but talk radio works best. for cd, use a artist that you dont listen to often, like if you listen to rock, put a rap cd to wake you up.
 
I soooo didn't read the title with an L in clock. 😱

I also have this problem. After a while i just phase out whatever alarm sound I have set and try a new one. of course that is a lot easier if you use a cell phone for an alarm clock. This past week I set 4 alarms so I wouldn't miss my test. Next thing I wake up and all my alarms had been turned off and I'll be late in 5 mins. I don't have any memory of turning the alarms off but I'm sure I did.
 
no need to invest all that hard earned money into 4 alarms man, just dont start touching yourself when its time to sleep, and have one(1) alarm/rooster set for the time you must wake up.
