Start your day right, with a smashed clock

Start your day right, with a smashed clockOut of all of the gadgets that we own, alarm clocks are our least favorite. They are probably the most hated gadget period. Anything that wakes you from your peaceful slumber on a daily basis deserves to be smashed, if not thrown out the window to be run over by a dump truck.

That’s the idea behind the Smash Clock. To turn off the Smash Clock’s alarm, there’s no fumbling required to find the right button. Just punch it. The top is nice and soft. By punching it aggressively, you wake up more fully, not to mention the fact that you’ve gotten some aggression out of your system first thing.

Everybody’s had one of those days where nothing seems to go your way, everyone seems like they’re against you and you just need to blow off some steam. Vent a bit of anger. But so many destructive things are frowned upon in our culture. How does one work out some frustration?

Artist Yarisa Kublitz has the answer. It’s a simple and elegant solution that keeps you out of trouble. Just use the Passive Aggressive Vending Machine that comes filled with fine China. If you need to release your anger, just feed it a coin, select the object you want to break and gravity will do the rest, breaking it into hundreds of pieces. There’s just something satisfying about breaking stuff. And hey, those people who work out their issues by actually putting things back together could get in on this too.
