I am surprised that no one has started selling shell headphones for sleeping.
You would think someone would have thought to encase two shells in like a cage in headphones so you can listen to the ocean while you sleep. It's like a sound machine, but no battery required.

what is this? the flintstones?
Haha shit that made me laugh
This is genuinely one of the most left-field shower thoughts I’ve come across. So often I can relate to these posts - I read it and think… “yeah, I see that”. This one truly has me going “huh… wtf”.
Well done bud, this is terrific.
Just tape some cups to your head? Same effect.
But what if its us two girls and we only have one cup?
Still works but the sound quality is shit.
Wow your username is surprisingly relevant.
Well you can already buy shells. She sells seashells by the seashore.

Thank you for an actual thought and not some dumbass rhetorical question.
I'm fairly certain dumbass rhetorical questions can qualify as shower thoughts.
Whether it's worth posting is a different question.
I feel like they might be a bit uncomfy laying down, tho you do only need one more shell if you need to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night...
It's brilliant and probably doable diy at no cost, but only if you sleep on your back and don't toss and turn. Which, maybe you won't, because sublime sleep. Or you could wait for the $500 Sharper Image version from an airplane seatback magazine
Yeah but how will I clean myself after I use the restroom.
Curious how many people have done something like that before sound machines and fans. Granted, there's plenty of natural outdoor noise in many places, so probably unnecessary.
Someone doesn't know how to use the
32 seashellsWith all due respect, you would think people would not be able to sleep with seashells attached to their heads.
Plus does those sea sounds last for that long, I really do not know.
As a thinker outside the box, but better at effects of my thoughts on users- Awesome, thinking outside the box, keep it up, but do a better job on your ideas effects on the users. With that said better for people’s hearing, then those ear buds.
If you live near the ocean, the seashell ocean sound will last forever. If you're a little farther away then you need to take them back to the ocean to recharge every couple months.
WOW, that is extremely interesting! It is not distance of time, but distance from the ocean, WOW!
Do you know why that is true?
Whoosh?
What do you mean by, Whoosh?
It's the sound of a joke going over your head.
What joke?
Might as well slice yours ears off. Same effect.
No, that would be the opposite. The noise captured and muddled in the shell is what gives the effect of hearing the ocean. Lose your ears and you remove some of that echo chamber.
But, shells are sharp and wearing them that way is going to slice your ears off, anyway.
Shells have edges, but I've never seen one that's sharp. I think this shower thought more implies the shells are stored off you face and there's a buffer between skin and shell, butt one could also get shells large enough to go over the ear.
The shells may not have inherently sharp edges, but if they're big enough to fit over your ears, and weren't caged in some convoluted way, if you rolled over and broke them, then you might have some sharp problems.
OP wants powerless ocean sounds like what shells do when you put them to your ear. You know this is the intent because it was clearly stated in the post. You chose to be snarky anyways. Classic reddit commenter mindset
