    You just sit in a room and wait to die. What else can you do?? Every aspect of your life would be drastically affected. You cant see if the food your eating is rotten or not, you never know if you are finished wiping your ass, your a sitting duck for theives, NO PORN, no sports, no TV, no friends cuz what do u talk about?? Did you see the fight last night......nope i didnt.

    I dont know how people do it.

    Bowling, hide and go seek, marco polo, karaoke, masturbate, eat, smoke,inject heroin, eat feces like plop, throw stuff and try to find it, ride a motorcycly{not for long though} go fishing{kind of} pick your nose.


    I guess all you pricks are right; I think I'd rather be deaf. I was just kidding F#ck music.[/quote]

    I think being born with no arms would be the worst torture for me[/quote]


    Gee, I couldn't possibly imagine why


    You should admire snakes more now; try eating a hamburger lying on your belly without using anything but your mouth. I actually tried one day out of sheer boredom and it was an exercise in futility

    What kind of sports do blind people play?
    If you hear a voice within you saying that I am not a painter, then by all means paint and that voice will be silenced.

    Well guess what, there's such thing as blind-people's baseball. They use sound in the baseball so you know what direction it is.

    "Heads up!"

    "What??"

    BAM!

    Thats a tough question to answer. I love my music, but ultimately I think my need to read wins over the need for sound. Films can have subtitles and I can continue to read the stuff I like.

    I live in a very noisy country and a bit of peace and quiet might be what I need. Not sure about forever though.

    I'd have to say Hearing.You can be visualy stimulated,read lips.Also a big difference if it is from birth or happens after you have already experienced years of both?I would need to see.I heard once....no pun ...that when you can not hear that you loose some sence of taste and smell as well Not sure if thats accurate.

    I was at a red light the other day and saw a guy down the street walking along with one of those feeling poles used to assist blind people.everystep he took he had to stop and reach out with his hand ,clearly blind.He thought he was at the entrance of a Rite-aid drugstore (about 2o feet away)and instead was trying to walk into one of those steel fences that surrounds a trash dumpster.That shit was messed up,I drove up and trying to be respectful but not wanting to see this dude get run over or picked up by a trash removal truck I asked, "You need a hand bud" ?.....not missing a beat he say's "No thanks ,I have both of mine,besides it's a pretty day out"....??

    That stopped me in my tracks!!Humor was intact ,dude obviously had "seen" something I had not.

    A few years ago this Danish woman won a lot of medals at the winter paralympic games in biathlon. I kid you not - they give rifles for blind people.

    (she got a fair bit of attention as Denmark genuinely sucks at the winter olympics)

    For some reason I am thinking sight. Not sure why, but that was just the first impression.

    Reading this thread does provide a good case for why I would probably make the wrong choice though.
