Jun 24 2009Afraid To Sleep: The Sonic Bomb Alarm Clock

The Sonic Bomb alarm clock is powerful enough to raise the dead. Why? For one, it comes with a 113dB alarm (louder than a jackhammer). But if that's not enough to wake you from your beauty fugly rest, it also flashes a bedside lamp on and off and has a 12-volt bed vibrator. Awake yet? The bomb sells for $43 and is guaranteed to make you frightened to fall asleep. Not unlike my creepy roommate, who, damnit, I CAN SEE YOU THERE BY THE DRESSER.

I have one of these, they are AWESOME to the power of RAD!!!
I have not slept in since I got it...but I have had the Po-Pos stop by and make sure there wasn't an air raid going on in my place!
2. Daisy - June 24, 2009 9:43 AM
FAKE!!!!
This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell its a fake because the shadow's are all wrong.
This is exactly like that scene in the movie Never BAck Down where Max heard they were going to tear down the Del Tacos and build a sonic. He went to the developers office and put drugs in the coffee pot, right before they met with the town to get approval.

this is weak to the power of sauce, if it could be any more a dildo I would be suprised to wake up to something vibrating
4. Timbo - June 24, 2009 9:46 AM
I would crush this thing in a week....
Not to mention it looks like something you buy from toys R us
5. Aaron Rabinowitz - June 24, 2009 9:47 AM
i have yet to break this thing, and i slam it down hard in the AM!!
6. FDSY - June 24, 2009 9:52 AM
Ha.
More like sonic boob.
7. STOMPY - June 24, 2009 10:05 AM
'MEATS' my seal of approval!!! oh wait, that makes no sense...
8. Crazywow - June 24, 2009 10:11 AM
Good (insert personal Deity of choice here) , if I wake up and the bed is shaking, the lamps are flashing and there is loud noises going off ...well lets just say it's another regular weekend afternoon.
9. Gordon "Fücking" Shumway - June 24, 2009 10:12 AM
Just what I need! I love shitting myself first thing in the morning.
10. Watch-303 - June 24, 2009 10:13 AM
COOL!
11. Matt Kendrick - June 24, 2009 10:16 AM
I'm a hard of hearing person and I can say this does work. Other then the fact it wakes my wife as well. Its great!
12. Timbo - June 24, 2009 10:22 AM
Well, if I can't break it then I don't want it...
I don't want to wake up in the mornings...
13. Nightfall - June 24, 2009 10:32 AM
@9 - That's awesome hahaha

YES! GW REFERRED TO ME!
15. naas - June 24, 2009 10:38 AM
Waking up with a heart attack, followed by gunfire because I am a deep sleeper - no thanks. It'd probably make a better "in-law" gift than it would an alarm clock.
16. STOMPY - June 24, 2009 10:40 AM
I think naas is on to something here. Next time my in laws are in town I'll just put this baby out of site and let er rip at 5 in the morning!
17. Chase - June 24, 2009 10:44 AM
I have one of these... the volume does not get me up, however, the vibrating
does... and scares the shit out of my son if he's there.
I agree Daisy, this is totally Photoshopped.
18. Pat - June 24, 2009 10:47 AM
Overkill, anyone?
19. $.02 and a pocket full of FAH-Q - June 24, 2009 11:15 AM
PFFBBT. I have a duel alarm clock and 2 more alarms set on different ringtones on my cell - I don't need the damned bed shaking too. But it would be fun to hide this under someone's bed and set up a webcam to watch them flip out.
20. Pew³ - June 24, 2009 11:20 AM
I wake up naturally every morning. I just mentally think of the time I would like to get up and I wake up at that time.
It just takes practice, and you have to trust yourself.
I starting by wakeing myself up one minute before the alarm went off.
21. $.02 and a pocket full of FAH-Q - June 24, 2009 11:23 AM
@20 - I can do that, the only problem is that I fall back asleep. Hence the 5 billion alarms - all set a few minutes apart.
22. Dr. Zombee - June 24, 2009 11:47 AM
I would just like to say that anyone that takes 3 seconds to do some research would realize, "Whoa. This thing is real and I sound like an idiot with my 'this is fake because of the shadows' theory."
Ch-ch-ch-check it out!
Wh-wh-wh-what's it all about?!

So, in your face!
23. Birr Crinton - June 24, 2009 11:54 AM
worst god damn way to wake up. i would be in the shittiest mood for the whole rest of the day if i woke up to this thing.
24. Birr Crinton - June 24, 2009 11:56 AM
also 22 is a noob
25. Freddy K - June 24, 2009 12:01 PM
Welcome to geekologie Dr Zombee
26. Deaf dude - June 24, 2009 12:05 PM
yea so I have one of these and its great. I used to oversleep all the time because of my drinking problem. This helps me when I go to sleep at 4am and wake up at 5:30 and I still have a buzz when I wake up. Its great
27. Boom shacka lacka - June 24, 2009 12:15 PM
I need this for my neighbor, the idiot can never hear his alarm.....

22 - Speaking of RESEARCH, had you looked around on this site, you would notice a particular theme regarding those NBD comments. But never fear, your arrogant attempt at being superior WAS noticed. Noticed, but not a WIN...
FAIL little n00b, FAIL indeed.
Next time, attempt to find your sense of humor/satire/irony before surfing the interwebz, or posters like Daisy will get you every time.
29. Dr. Zombee - June 24, 2009 12:20 PM
I've been coming to this site for a long time now, and I have posted a comment here and there, but lately it seems like a growing pattern to see people just look at something and go, "This is fake. The shadows...just look at the shadows and you'll totally get what I'm saying. The shadows...." And, ya know what? I don't see it. In fact, there are hardly ANY shadows in this picture.
Apparently, logical thinking makes you a "noob."
Although, what could one expect from a someone that calls oneself "Birr Crinton"?
30. Dr. Zombee - June 24, 2009 12:28 PM
HAHAHAHA @ 28
Get me everytime?
With that lame "this is just like the scene in that movie...." BS.
Is that how I am to be had?
Because had you ACTUALLY looked at the link I added, rather than just sitting there with your thumb up your arse and drooling all over yourself, you would have found that they sell these things all over the place. I'm not arrogant, nor, a noob. I just happen to have this little perk that most people call "common sense."
Common sense also tells me that some deadbeat, loser, such as yourself, wasting your time on here thinking you're cool shit, hitting on (what you are hoping are) girls that make the connection between alarm clocks and terrible movies is nothing to get worked up over.
31. Lizzie - June 24, 2009 12:31 PM
Dr. Zombee, Daisy posts the same comment for every post... no matter what it is...
I really need one of these alarms. I sleep like the dead! we have two cell phones set to go ff, a regular alarm clock, a clock that has a quacking duck, and a stereo set to start playing, and we sleep through ti every time...
32. $.02 and a pocket full of FAH-Q - June 24, 2009 12:37 PM
30 - By "get you every time" I meant that they would bait you into showing your asinine need to feel superior... now you've failed at it twice in one post! Great job!
33. Dr. Zombee - June 24, 2009 12:51 PM
@ 32
Yeah. I'm sure that's what you meant, $.02 blah blah blah.
Or I burned you twice and thats the only thing you could come up with.
And is it just me or am I getting the feeling that I truly am superior to you, because you keep bringing it up time and time again, but I haven't. What are you worried that you are INFERIOR to everyone else? Especially, when some "noob" like me comes in here and starts making fun of the people that have been on here much longer than I have. You must feel threatened, I'm sure, but you should be used to getting made fun of by now.
34. Crazywow - June 24, 2009 12:57 PM
FAH-Q is hitting on Daisy D......am I missing something or is Dr. Z ?
Also yes i am actually missing several things a left sock (grey), a ball of string, my neighbour's car which I borrowed and then left somewhere while drinking , my wallet, one of my boots and a kitchen table...if anyone finds my boot let me know please ( it's a size 10 and black) thanks.
35. Aaron Rabinowitz - June 24, 2009 1:07 PM
@34
I think I saw your boot underthe table which was on top of the car, all being driven by the sock going down on the string.
36. Schadenfreudetastic - June 24, 2009 1:08 PM
WANT...
I never wake up at the right time in the morning, and it pisses me off. I'm now able to turn off my alarm clock while still asleep, so I end up late for everything.
37. rancor - June 24, 2009 1:09 PM
I think I found the boot, if not then what am I pew pewing into?
38. Gordon "Fücking" Shumway - June 24, 2009 1:59 PM
That's not Dr. Zombee! It's Goliath's corn filled turd!
39. Cameron - June 24, 2009 2:11 PM
@ Dr. Zombee
Dude, I really feel bad for you. I can't imagine trying to navigate teh interwebz with such a tiny brain.
40. sobored - June 24, 2009 2:25 PM
well that bed shaker is fake, there's no way you'd be woken up from a 12volt bed shaker waking you up, since you wouldn't be able to get enough power from 12 volts. If you ask me, it's fake and people that say they have one are just trollin'
Besides if you need to wake up, just set an alarm on your computer and then put your speakers on full with a heavy metal song set to play, trust me, it'll wake the whole house up.
41. ch4p3l - June 24, 2009 2:37 PM
It IS real dummies, google dat shit! Keep your receipt though if you get one, mine broke in 2 months :(
PS. Dr Zombee is a douche barrel (barrel instead of bag cuz a barrel is bigger than a bag, not because of the shadows)
42. Chase is First - June 24, 2009 5:16 PM
Wow, Dr. Z still doesn't get it... I don't think he ever will.
BTW, Dr. Z, I think you're photoshopped. Yes, indeed, sir, your shadows are all wrong!
To all: I don't think Dr. Z is english speaking or is from another country. It may not know cultural references/american sarcasm/dry humor. Just sayin'.
43. Verstand - June 24, 2009 8:12 PM
Yeah, Dr. Z is def photobombshooped.
Just look at him, its differerrent lighting then the background. And he's missing a finger.
44. keri - June 24, 2009 11:23 PM
My ex is deaf and has one of these. Scared the hell out of me the first time I spent the night. It's real.
45. keri - June 24, 2009 11:27 PM
My ex is deaf and has one of these. Scared the hell out of me the first time I spent the night. It's really annoying.
46. Lizzie - June 25, 2009 12:11 AM
I think we need to put at the end of every post.
for the geniuses of the world like Dr. Z...
... see how easy??
47. Lizzie - June 25, 2009 12:12 AM
awwww, epic fail on my part, it didn't show it :(:(
48. pie - June 25, 2009 12:39 AM
dr.zombie is defiantly a noob, look at the way he (or she) responds to criticism, ive seen it a million times, the common sence defence. They claim they are teh 0nley 1 wit teh c0mm0n senz0rz!
49. led screen - June 25, 2009 1:06 AM
Looks very cool .it's led clock .but it's a little expensive .$43
50. LC - June 25, 2009 7:04 AM
That last sentence made me laugh heartily, well done GW. Also, I imagine these things annoy the everliving f*** out of any nearby neighbors.
51. wanks - June 25, 2009 12:57 PM
um yeah...ill pass...i dont want to wake up to loud noise and shit and piss all over my bed
52. Darth - June 25, 2009 1:47 PM
I like to wake up gently but i know there're some people who really have trouble with waking up.
53. Chris - June 26, 2009 10:51 AM

It's real. Check out the videos. The 12V shaker will wake you up guaranteed. Sorry for the brutal website. The new one is a couple of weeks out.
55. Chris - June 28, 2009 12:55 PM
I used to have this. First night i had it my dad came in from down the hall cussing and raising hell, i still managed to sleep through it. Haha.
