The Most Ridiculous Ways To Tell Time Since The Sundial

Mon, Jun 9, 2008

Art / Design, Front Page


Our ancestors may have had to guess the time based on the position of the sun, but thankfully we don’t have to deal with that crap anymore (no offense ancient Mayans).  

These clocks may not be the most practical things ever, but they’re all great examples of creative design work.

1) Flexible White Dudes + Flexible Asian Girl + Flexible Redhead = The Time
If you enjoy seeing stock photography get its exercise, this one is great.

2) The Clock That Can Bring Anyone Together
The loading time is intense (skip this one if you’re on dial-up) but the end result is worth it. Just type in any two words and hit enter. 

Hint: if you type in “Ron Paul” and “George Bush”, they’ll be forced to work together to tell you the time. However, it will be the time in an alternate universe. Fair warning.

3) Why Does It Always Have To Be Carpal Tunnel Time?
This is definitely the hardest working clock on this list, but I’m curious how many trees this website goes through in one day. I hope it’s recycled paper at least.

4) Everywhere I Look, I See A Clock
After you look at this one, you’ll be seeing numbers more often than a mathematician who… is at work? Sorry, I don’t know mathematicians very well. I assume they do something with numbers.

5) Is This A Clock Or The Worst Typing Test Ever?
If you ever wondered why your keyboard wasn’t a clock, you can stop wondering. And after that you should sit down and ask yourself why you’re expecting so much from an inanimate object. Seriously. Your keyboard is going to end up with an eating disorder if you keep that up.

6) This List Sucks Clock
I’m going to be honest here. The only reason I used that title is to stop someone else from using it in the comments and embarrassing themselves. We may have fragile egos here at TinyDad.com but we’re always willing to jump on a terrible comment grenade.

This clock is also available as a screensaver. Bonus!

7) The Most Awesome Clock Of All-Time (If You Live In Tokyo)
Congratulations if you’ve made it this far. Your reward can be found at the website above.
