Human Senses: Pick Two (only two. Not three. Not two with an alternate. Just Two!!)

[Captain_Quint]

Sight and hearing, with taste as an alternate and touch as a 4th. Nobody cares about smell except in the case of a gas leak, but I guess that would be my 2nd alternate.

I'm going with sight and touch and my reasons are purely sexual.

This was my first thought as well.

 

Anyone not choosing touch is a dumbass.

Anyone not choosing “taste” will rot in a hell of blandness for eternity.

once hearing goes you start deteriorating

 

Completely agree here. I care WAY too much about quality sound to lose hearing.

Sight and hearing ... How am I supposed to be able to drive a car if I can't either see or hear ?

Humans have five senses: Touch, Sight, Hearing, Smell and Taste. 
 

Given your age and experience, if told you can only pick two senses for the rest of your life, which ones do you pick and which ones do you cast aside?

 

I’m keeping: 

Sight: Can still read your idiotic posts, a book, watch Bills games, go fishing, hunting, etc. 

 

Taste: Good food. Enough said. 
 

You guys may say, what about “music”....I can sing tunes in my head. Music nowadays sucks. 

As for touch and smell...that would kinda suck, but Sight and Taste are more impotent. 
 

 

Taste you only get sweet, sour, bitter and salt. Much of what we think of as “taste” is actually a combination of smell and taste.

Not sure how you’ll watch or listen to Mets games, but that’s your problem.

You stink! I can still smell!

[Augie]

I can’t help but notice “common” was not an option. I’ve been here long enough to understand why......

That is MUCH better than touching or tasting him!

This is seems like a premise for a horror movie.

 

One of the most frightening is the idea that you are "trapped" in your body. Paralyzed and cannot communicate. When I was kid I remember a movie or TV show where a man was cursed or given a drug that made him appear dead and he was then buried.  Nightmares.

So I assume you chose to “see and hear” me?? I’ll take that as a compliment. Have you heard my rendition of “Hey Jude”. Unforgettable.

I think not having touch would affect a lot more than one would expect, like walking and chewing food.

 

Agreed.  Even taking aside sex the potential for injury is huge.

Two. And hearing isn’t an option for you.
