This thing didn’t cause me nightmares, but it did make me spend about 5 minutes trying to make it shut up. Alarm was set for midnight. While trying to turn off the damn alarm, I inadvertently made it start tweeting and bubbling. I still don’t know how I eventually made it shut up. Mom informed me this morning that there’s a main power switch on the cord. The only switch I could find in my sleepy frustration last night was the one that turns off the backlight/motor. That caused the 30-year-old-fridge farting and grinding to stop.
Why does this thing have a motor in it? To make tide appear to shimmer, of course. Duh.
I do not love this clock. I do love my mother.
