Calendar Clock Not Nearly As Fun As It Sounds

calendarclock

Are you ready for a lifetime of boredom?! Rather than sitting and staring at a traditional clock, you know, with its flashy “seconds” and “minutes,” how about giving the Calendar Clock a try?

The clock measures days, months and hours rather than minutes and seconds, so you might have to strain a bit to notice any movement. Sounds like a blast. Totally not a waste of time, at all. If by some inconceivable (you keep saying that word. I don’t think it means what you think it means.) chance that you become bored with the Calendar Clock, give this clock a try.

Lifetime Clock: Watch It As You Die

Most clocks, the ones that are based around seconds, minutes, and hours, can be watched for movement if you really need to waste some time of boredom, though we’ve seen clocks which are both much more fun, and more beautiful to look at than your average clock. The Lifetime Clock, on the other hand, is based on years. The movements of the hand are so slow (1/61320th of a normal clock speed) that you’ll need a time lapse camera to spot any clear movement, so you might want to grab a book instead.

Each number on its face is separated by 7 years of your life, and you’ll have to live a full 84 long years until you can see one full revolution around the dial. That’s a lot of children to throw off your lawn. — Andrew Dobrow
