For decades, people have written stories about how eventually machines will take over the world and rule all humans. It's already happened. Yes, we've already all been enslaved by clocks. Society is dictated by the whims of tiny little machines that display numbers or "Roman Numerals" (which, as far as I can tell, have nothing to do with Romans, not even pictures of them). A perfect example of this is alarm clocks. Alarm clocks are these malevolent little things that like to beep when you don't want them to. They are evil. They love to make you wake up in the early morning, when no one should be up, when it's cold outside, or when it's dark outside. Imagine just how great our society would be if we didn't let the jerks wake us up, and just slept as late as possible! Sure, we'd be unproductive and lazy, but who cares? The rest of the world already thinks we are. A couple more hours of sleep would be well worth an image we already have.

So why are we slaves to time? Perhaps it's part of man's constant search for order and organization. Because deep down inside, we are all OCD. Without exception. Unless your name is Mr. Rich, and having OCD could possibly affect my grade. This leads to tons of discrimination. Societal norms dictate sleeping at night. Those who don't are labelled as "insomniacs." Society dictates that we are in class on time at obscure times like 10:43 and 26 seconds. Those who fail to conform are penalized. This really shows some sort of conspiracy. Obviously, those who are high in society have made some sort of deal with time. My guess is that they force everyone to obey clocks in return for the alarm clocks not harassing them.

This slavery has been going on since Biblical times. Ecc. 3 states that there is "a time to every purpose under the heaven." Those clocks sure are ambitious. Not simply content to dictating human lives, they want to control everything "under the heaven". We need to take action! We need to stand up for our rights! We need to push the snooze button! I have a lot more to say, but it's time for me to go.
