I have a pretty rad alarm clock. It has two alarms, but I often set the wrong one and it doesn't go off. Whoops. Once I was late to work because of it. Whooops.
I like the snooze function. Often I'll set the alarm 20 minutes earlier than I actually want ot get up and then hit the snooze button a couple of times in the morning just so I get to enjoy laying in bed. Laying in bed in the morning enjoying the feeling of your morning wood is the best.
I used to use my mobile phone but I have gotten so sick of hearing the first ten seconds of That Boy That Girl every morning so that's why I bought my clock. It also has lots of buttons on the back that tell me things like the date and next week's Lottery numbers.
Do you like alarm clocks as much as I do? Talk about your alarm clock-based experiences in this thread. Maybe very memorable times you woke up? Maybe make Top-10 lists of your favourite alarm patterns. I'm quite partial to BEEP BEEP BEEPBEEP BEEP BEEP myself.

I used to use a radio alarm, but I had trouble finding the right volume. I was always worried it would either be too quiet and not wake me up, or too loud and wake everyone in the house up. Really depends on the song/commercial that is playing.
These days I always use my phone alarm, but I have to make sure it is far enough away that I have to get out of bed, or I will turn it off in my sleep.
Funny story, my old phone's alarm sound was someone else's ringtone. So whenever someone called that guy, I'd suddenly jump and feel wide awake.

One time we had a power outage at my apartment (which is conveinitely located directly next to the place we get our electricity from) and all the fish in my fish tank died because it was out for hours and hours. My awesome frogs were okay though, just in case anybody was wondering.

Yeah, it sucked.
Another delightful fish mishap story: one of our mollies had like twenty babies or so, but the filter tube's protective cap fell off and they all got sucked up into the filter. Chop chop.
One of them survived though so yay!

Did you name it Nemo?
I named him Shrimpy because he was tiny and pathetic. Perhaps so tiny and pathetic that he escaped his doom.

man these are all the worst fish-related stories
Fish are basically the worst pets. Not two days ago my favorite fish died because of...well, I have no idea why. It just died. But it was cool because it was one of a different batch of baby mollies. The parents were both plain white fish but this little fishie came out marbled black and white.
Mostly I just try to focus on my super pimp frogs. They can live for up to 12 years or something ridiculous like that.

I remember when I was a kid, I would use this wind up clock, though. It worked pretty well!

The only times I'm late for work is when the cell dies overnight. Otherwise, I'm good.
too lazy to switch back

It is wonderfully effective
I used to have this really dumb alarm clock that I used to knock over a lot until it broke. Goddamn that thing was the bane of my life.

As for my penis, I had caught it in my zipper recently... christ that motherfucker bled.

It's like the anti-alarm.
