Losing your senses....

[He Man]

This is gonna be a strange one...

I was thinking to myself. How would it feel like to loose one of your senses? Then i got thinking, which one is the worst to loose? And when i thought about, i figured everyone had their own list of which sense is most important to them, or in the pessimestic appraoch, a  list of which they would be most upset if they lost.

So what sense is the most important to you? (make a list!)

1. Hearing
2. Smell
3. Taste
4. Touch
5. Sight

Smell and taste are pretty interchangeable though.

As a (shitty) musician, hearing is definitely the most important to me. Sight is a very close #2. The other 3 I could live w/o, no problem.

On a side note, I had an uncle who was a great chef. Graduated from CIA. Used to regularly do huge corporate catering functions for famous people, politicians, fortune 500 companies, etc. Couldn't taste or smell a thing.

If I really put some effort into it... I bet I could find an XTC song to fit every thread

Sight because you can't ride blind.

Sight because you can't ride blind.

Exactly. There are times that I would be happy to lose my sense of smell 

[superjohn]

I don't really want to lose any senses, but for the sake of the exercise.

1. Hearing
2. Sight
3. Taste
4. Smell
5. Touch
6. Kinaesthesia

[Sinister]

In order of importance, I'd go:

1. sight
2. touch
3. taste
4. smell
5. hearing (I don't have to be able to hear to tell people they are wrong, on the internets)

[Fresh Pants]

I'd be okay if I lost my fashion sense.

Sight because you can't ride blind.

Can't ride without a sense of touch either...

The way I figure it, loosing the sense of smell and taste is much like a bad cold.  I think I can live without them. 

Loss of hearing would suck.  But agian, I could manage. 

Loosing sight would be devastating, but I hope I would be able to make the adjustment. 

However, I can't imagine living without the sense of touch.  Everything you do is reliant on it, walking, talking, eating etc.

1) Sight
2) Touch
3) Hearing

7. Proprioception (You have a sense they tells you where your limbs are at any given moment)
