Re: Legitimate Question.
Just like P.O said everyone has a natural alarm clock, I usually wake-up minutes before the alarm..as a matter of fact I don't use it at all now for the daily routine...

If you have a deaf neighbor who lives next door to you, and you notice the apartment complex is on fire, how do you go about waking them up?
Ring door bell?
Yell fire?

Re: Legitimate Question.
Alarms are for people who don't get enough sleep or sleep late.
You are naturally going to wake up 8 hours later. If you sleep at 10pm or 11 pm, you will wake up at 6 or 7am.
I tell myself before I sleep: "Wake up at 7 am. Wake up at 7 am". And you know what's strange, it actually works.
Deaf people have people to wake them up or vibrating phones or they sleep at proper times. There are many ways to wake up. You don't only need an alarm.

Alarm uma baahnid maskaxdaada ku kicinaysa, ilaahy amarkiisa subax kasta indhaha waxaan kala fura 4.30, it's like Allah waking me up for salatul subax.
Re: Legitimate Question.
My body clock must be off cause if I'm left to my own devices, I sleep for 9 or 10 hours. Sometimes 12.Titanium wrote:Alarms are for people who don't get enough sleep or sleep late.

Re: Legitimate Question.
Deaf people who do not wear hearing aids or cochlear implants sometimes have lights that go off when people are at the door. Some cautious deaf people might have a system with neighbours they trust, but I assume it varies depending on the individual.zingii wrote:Knock the door?Alphanumeric wrote:Vibrating alarm clocks.
