These laborious alarm clocks are just about everyone’s worst nightmare. When I say "laborious," I mean that these bad boys are going to force you to get up and put some effort into shutting them off.
Whether they automatically roll away from you or blast a high-pitched sound, these alarms aren’t for night owls. Check out these laborious alarm clocks and see which one you would like to put a hammer through if it woke you up.
