Mornings are a painful time already, although some masochists like to make it worse by purchasing alarm clocks bent on torturing you. These self-loathing morning people can now add another tool to their wake-up-with-a-grimace arsenal: the Waitek Shower Monitor. Keeping hot-water consumption down by making sure you're out of that warm, invigorating shower in under 8 minutes, the shower monitor lets out a loud, annoying screech across your entire house once you pass the time limit. Therefore not only are you annoyed by it, but your family will come knocking on the bathroom door and yelling at you if you get too comfortable. It seems to us that all these products designed to force you to be responsible only focus on those early morning hours. What is it about waking up that robs you of your self-control? Do people not get spines until 10 a.m. or what? In any case, if you hate yourself at dawn, the Waitek Shower Monitor is available online now for $110.
