Versus: New Clocky or Original Clocky?
By Christa Terry
When I first heard about Clocky from its creator Gauri Nanda during an interview, I was already in love. These quirky little alarm clocks finally went on sale many moons ago but I still don’t have one. Why? Because when I was interviewing Nanda, it was the original Clocky that stole my heart.
The “new” Clocky has modern curves paired with vintage colors, and that’s cool. New Clocky looks sweet and forgiving. Original Clocky, on the other hand, is rugged, big, and meanly anthropomorphic. He’s not going to take your crap–try to sleep in and he’s going to roll over to your neighbor’s yard and destroy their lawn gnomes. Still not ready to get up? Original Clocky will ransack your living room until he finds those compromising pictures of yourself you took in college.
You can’t avoid the realities of the morning when Original Clocky is on the prowl…

Is that original one covered in… carpet? Weird.

I need to get Mr. Exile one of these. That way I will not feel the need to murder him when he keeps hitting the snooze button.
