    Default Would you rather...?

    This came up in a conversation we had in class today...

    Would you rather go blind or go deaf?

    (Feel free to add your own questions.)

    I would rather jump off a building and cut my throat on the way down than lose either one.

    I would probably pick deaf, but let's hope that scenario never happens.

    Blindness - you'd miss out on the beauty of the world.
    Deafness - never be able to hear music again.

    Mufumonk's answer wins.

    That is a tough one.

    At first I thought I'd rather be blind, so I can have conversations and listen to music, etc...

    Then I thought about my sight and what it does for me, then I thought about closed caption and paper and pens.

    So yeah...

    Give me deaf!

    wow. honestly i dont know how I could do without either one.

    i am a HUGE music fan so I wouldnt want to miss out on the beauty of music.

    but I also love sights and a good sunset.

    but if i went deaf I wouldnt be able to speak well....so we will go with blind.

    I was deaf for the first five years of my life...so I am pretty good at lip-reading...I'll take deaf.

    Not being able to see my son smile again...it would be too painful.
