Future Clock.

so i have a totally good futuristic watch that makes people respect the fact that i am from the actual future. in addition... it makes it a pain for them to steal the time from me. because they will be unable to actually read it.

but what if people come to my house and want to steal the time? unfortunately as it currently sits... they can simply look at a normal hand-havin' wall clock and figure out what time it is. they don't have to ask how to read it or even have to ask if they are allowed to read it. they can just steal the time from me! completely unacceptable and completely non-representative of my 'from-the-future' status. and in looking at my old-timey hand-havin' caveman clock people might even assume i am not in fact from the future. this is ALSO completely unacceptable.*

my plan was originally to get a Nixie clock. as it is obviously from the future. but from the future where LEDs were never invented. sort of like the future from Gattaca where they have the electric-powered Avantis and Rover 2000s. but Nixie clocks only solve one problem... representin' the future. they do not solve the problem of people thieving the time from me. they also cost approximately four million dollars. enter the ThinkGeek TIX LED Clock.



i think i have found my new clock.

- cheap
- illegible by people not from the future
- it's from the future

check. check. and check. excellent. silver please.

* and to think that i can never figure out why no one ever visits me.
