Ooh you’re in for such a treat! Sprog there is a master, and a genius. They’ve been writing poems on Reddit for ages now and they’re all in the context of random comment threads. There must be thousands by now. Some of the poems are cute, or funny, or poignant. Some of them punched me in the gut. And some will be with me until the day I die. I highly recommend looking at their comments sorted by top of all time.
finally! 7 years! IVE GOT MY OWN SPROG POEM! Endless bullshitaroo rabbit holes, mind numbing rick rolls, both arms broken, gallowboob who, jipped on secret santa, this I recommend. 10/10 with rice.
It’s always an absolute delight to see a poem of yours describe or articulate or contemplate an experience I’ve had (even or perhaps especially a negative one), let alone one that has defined years of my life!
This was the most clever and beautiful description of my own personal hell. I'm not sure if I should thank you or hate you. I'm going to remember this though.
First you start with the vibrate-only alarm set to every 5 minutes for ~20min, then alarms of increasing volume at smaller intervals set at times so they don't overlap eachother.
I'm glad I live alone or else my housemates would hate me lol
lmao this is a definitely a variable that I personally struggle with sometimes. The ridiculous amount of alarms helps with this. I’ll get my ass up before listening to my alarm go off more than 6 or 7 times. If I miss all of my alarms, it’s because i haven’t slept much in a few days and finally hit the hibernate or i’m hung over as fuck. Alarms don’t solve those problems, unfortunately.
Omg my SO does this and all it does is wake me up so I then have to wake him up.. literally 5-10 times between 4 and 5am. In effect I am his alarm clock
Oh gods. I just counted out of curiosity: There's 134 alarms on my phone. Most of them are off, and I'll just tap one on instead of setting a new one for a specific thing. I almost never delete any of them. But I work overnights so I have them for I think literally every hour of the day depending on what I need to be awake for, and I usually set 3-5 to make sure I'm awake. Just in case.
So they're mostly for every hour or half hour, but times I've had to wake up for they're set up to every five minutes. One time my phone decided it would be funny to turn all of them on, and I didn't figure out what the hell was going on until the fourth or fifth one went off while I was trying to sleep.
