"What the HECK is that?"

[Imp Poster]

1) If you could download some sound off the internet and use it in your alarm clock, what sound would you use to wake you up?

2)Off-topic but related, does anyone know an alarm clock that you could put sounds(and I am not talking music because you could just burn a CD and have a CD/radio alarm clock) you can download off the net maybe from your computer? And I mean an alarm clock that's around $30, shows big illuminated time, snooze button, maybe a radio. I am not talking about a $200 cell phone or $1500 laptop and use it like an alarm clock.

And if you are reading this far, the back story is that my friend was telling me about this girl he started dating. It was the first time they slept together which was at her place. But he was startled that she has recorded sermons from some pastor as an alarm. He was more alarmed than the alarm. He doesn't know what to do and what to think. And I couldn't stop laughing which I needed after paying my property tax. I asked him what the sermon was about, God's view on pre-martial sex? hahaha.. ahem.

It plays a countdown then fires the rocket across the room. You have to retrieve the rocket to turn it off

"What is love" by Haddaway

The radio started playing that when I woke up, the entire day was just awesome.

The Metal Gear Solid alert sound.

Probably followed by some really frantic music. That initial shock is one of the sounds permanently embedded in my brain since I first played MGS.

I can just imagine someone with a window open so the second it goes off it flies out of the window and hits someone's car.

Addressing your second point, you're ostly lilkely going to spend way over $30 for it.

anyway, as for your first point. Um... probably a cavalry bugle and then the sounds of the cavalry charging and guns beuing shot. Something to get your blood going.

I'd buy one of those. Maybe I'd put the 007 song along with it.

I have Wake Up by Rage Against the Machine as my alarm now. It certainly does what the title says to me.

Oh, yeah that was the back story. I put it like that because my friend was complaining about What the heck is that noise.

I can picture a dog getting hold of the thing and running off with it.

I don't think I could go back to sleep after that.
