initially I believed that backstreet boys were better but time has shown me that though I like bsb, nsync was clearly a better boy band in every way.

now that i think about it, taste definitely

it would suck not being able to taste food, and ur digestion might get ****ed up
but as long as you kept an eye on it you could get away with eating super healthy **** all day. oatmeal, no sugar, no milk, wheatgrass, whatever

being blind is no good =o

yeah taste would suck but that would mean i could lose weight because i wouldnt be tempted to eat that burger if it tastes the same as raw celery. so taste definitely

and i could still play melee!

that's a non-question; taste ez

i'm pretty sure that, especially as gamers, sight is #1 for 95% of us (esp since it's hard to imagine not having 'feel')

sight vs hearing would be at least slightly more interesting though

I rather be deaf.


So I can keep annoying people by saying "What?" by keep making them repeat all day.

Were you deaf from birth? I saw some videos where people can hear for the first time in their lives when they're like 16, I really wanted to go ask them what that was like.

I saw a similar video too. I also saw this one where a baby was born blind but regained his eyesight a few years later. Pretty trippy if they were both real. :bee:

lost my hearing at 6

Essentially being deaf is like when you're underwater and all sounds are muffled to silence, sometimes you can kinda feel the sound vibrations or some **** which creates an illusion of hearing

yeah kira i saw a lot of that stuff in a few of my GE classes. turns out a large portion of the people that are deaf from birth, ultimately choose to remain deaf. they say that the commotions of every day life are too distracting, which really does make sense when you think about it. imagine not ever knowing what sound was, and then suddenly being bombarded with all these inescapable harsh clanging noises. pretty overwhelming.

that being said i'd definitely choose being deaf. i think i'd be able to find some peace in silence, whereas being blind would just be frustrating.

I'm not surprised, but at the same time I wonder what they thought of music. And if there were any trends in the types of music they first were attracted to.
