A friend brought up aninteresting question the other day, and I thought that I'd share it wwith you guys. If you had to choose a disability, would you rather be deaf, blind, or mute? Why? I would rather be mute because I could still communicate through writing and other than that the effect that it would have on my life would be minimal.

Blind is the coolest, but for reasons stated in the thread so many times: Mute.

Wat.

If i am death i wouldn't be qable to see anything which i would need to be able to do a lot.


Since you corrected yourself in the thread and said that you meant "def" i will spare you that, but if you were def, you wouldn't be able to hear, not see.

As for me, mute would also be my option. There would be many more oppotunities.

blind. from what i heard it enhances your other senses. i don't know if that's true or not, but there are some blind people that are good at music, etc

Id probably pick mute because writing things down would be fairly easy, and i just like being able to see stuff...its a plus

I would rather be mute, partially because it's easiest to get by without speaking cus some people do that anyways, and because I love television and music. Also, I suck at singing and it would be a good excuse.

And to answer the second question, I would rather have a broken arm, as long as it was my left arm because i'm a righty and could still do frisbee with one arm out of the game.

I would rather be deaf. If you were blind then you would pretty much be able to do nothing.
