I’ve seen kitchen scales with clock functions before, but none were as elegant as this wall-mountable version. When you have flour, meat or weed to measure out, just take it off the wall and lay it flat on the counter. Measures in both grams and ounces.

The world may have moved on to digital photography for the most part, but there are still plenty of die-hard traditionalists out there that are sticking with old-fashioned film. For the latter group I present this LCD clock in its film-shaped form.

En Suspend is a stylish, contemporary clock that doubles as a coat hanger. Lining a few of them up in a hallway with times set to different cities around the world would actually be a very cool (and functional) look. An additional image is available after the break.
Ah the Killin’ Time Clock. Inappropriate on so many levels. Not only does it feature the face of Vlad Tepes (Vlad the Impaler), the notorious 15th century Romanian ruler and one of Bram Stoker’s inspirations for Dracula, it also features tiny impaled figures on the clock hands. The second hand even includes Vlad’s date of birth and (supposed) death. I suppose it goes without saying, but his product will bring a ray of sunshine into any room.

Bologna is the new bacon folks—you heard it here first. A tidal wave of bologna-related merchandise is poised to dominate the market. For example, this pattern can be purchased on everything from clocks to hats to journals. However, if you are a bacon purist, your product is pictured after the break.
The Memoria clock is inspired by 19th century French fireplace clocks, but the concept itself is very modern. Up close the cut metal looks almost pixelated and it is supported by its own “shadow.”

If there is one thing that I can’t stand it is those corny inspirational posters you find hanging up in offices. You know—the ones that say “Hang in There” with a picture of a cat hanging from a tree or “Achievement” with some dude on the summit of a mountain. Well, someone managed to cram all of that douchebaggery into a desktop countdown clock. Just set it for sometime between now and 2049 and it will motivate you until the battery runs out. There is also a retirement version, but with the way the economy is right now, you might find yourself resetting that one a few times.

What is 90 degrees in radians? The Unit Circle (Radian) Wall clock claims to provide easy answers to questions like this—but make sure to double check. The pop quiz wall clock made similar claims, but commenters were quick to point out that there were minor inaccuracies with the calculations and no actual calculus (despite the title). If you are wondering if everything is correct with this version, don’t look at me. I’m an art and English nerd—how the hell should I know?

It doesn’t matter what time of day it is, Homer always has beer on the brain. Haha…. alcoholism.

If you and your partner are hopelessly addicted to sex, the Kama Sutra Clock pictured above will give you something new to try every hour. But, if you need something a little weirder more sophisticated to turn you on, check out the clock after the break.
