The Human Senses : Rank 'Em (1 Viewer)

[Otis]

Rank the senses in order.  Feel free to provide reasoning.  

Also if you have to give up two senses, which ones, and why.  

TIA

(Note to shuke: please rank them in THIS thread)

 

[CGRdrJoe]

3 threads? Bring back skinny Otis

 

[East Coast Bias]

Are we supposed to rank one in each thread?

 

[bostonfred]

If you gave up sight and hearing I bet you'd play a mean pinball.

 

[Sinn Fein]

Sight

Touch

Hearing

Taste

Smell

I would eat healthier if i got rid of Taste and Smell - so lets drop those.

 

[Scoresman]

Mr. Miyagi was the best sensei.  Dont even really need a thread, do we?

 

[Ignoramus]

I like to taste stuff and that is also heavily dependent upon smell so gotta keep those two.

It would be tough to be independent without sight.  I'd have a hard time working so unless I'm wealthy I can't really do without that.

That leaves hearing and touch as the bottom two.  Being deaf wouldn't be too bad... Peace and quiet and all that.  Plus if I already speak I wouldn't sound like a deaf guy when I talked, would I?

I usually feel pretty fat, if that's what you're oh-so-delicately trying to ask.

You realize giving up touch means you, uh, can't feel anything.  I mean, um, ya know, uh, down there.

With no sense of touch you're probably not making it to old enough to enjoy sex.  You won't know when you're injured, including being burned.  You need touch to survive.

You could use that, Forest.

My top 5 Census:

1. The 2010 Census -  This was the first census that recorded a population exceeding 300 million

2. The 1940 Census -  This is the most recent Census where individuals' data has now been released to the public.

3. The 1920 Census -  The first census that recorded a population exceeding 100 million.

4. The 1790 Census - Gotta rank the first in my top 5.

5. The 1850 Census -  It was the first year in which the census bureau attempted to record every member of every household.
