Oh my God I'd have to say neither. I love music and couldn't bare the fact of a reality without sound... as for sight, without it, I couldn't play BF2, or witness anything great involving sight... no way, if I had to go with either... I'd have a hard time dealing with them either way so my vote'll have to be null on this one, I say neither, sorry.

Since you ask this question, are you deaf?

I'd rather be deaf. Like topthrill said, you can still lipread. But no one's about to create a Braille version of BF2 just yet.

^ Thats the truth my brother. And they have hearing aids and cochlear implants and whatnot, but the bionic eye isnt a reality yet. it is going to be soon, but how long is the testing gonna take? probably too long, my desire for porn will be gone, and i couldn live without THAT!

blind, I like music too much, chicks dig blind dudes, and when I go to a strip club I get to say "I see with my hands"

besides, it would add some permanence to the " beauty is only a light switch away" thing

Well, considering I'm deaf, I'd have to choose being deaf again!

I was cleaning my ears out with a q-tip as a little kid on my parents bed and my sisters were jumping on the bed and BOOM, I land on the side with the q-tip in my ear and punctured my eardrum and cochlea. A few months later I got really sick with meningits. Not a fun thing. So then I received the Cochlear Implant and now I can hear  pretty well with it like a normal hearing person. Hearing aids do not work at all as all the cilia in my cochlea are shot, due to meningitis (FU meningitis!)

I have several hard of hearing people in my family.  I know for a fact that I would rather lose my hearing than my sight.  When you lose your hearing, you can still read lips and see what else is going on around you. 

this is not the most PC forum topic but who said this was to be a pc forum?
