    Mute. The other two would make life much harder.

    ...../facepalm...

    Please tell me the "mute" part was a joke. Lmfao...muting only refers to technology, not to humans.

    I'd probably be mute as well. I'm addicted to watching movies, listening to music, and playing basketball/tennis....being mute wouldn't effect any of those things, except maybe playing those two sports.

    Your wrong.

    Muteness: a speech disorder in which a person lacks the ability to speak

    I'd rather be muted like most of us would.

    Mute.
    Even though I'd have to carry around a dry erase board with me asa form of communication, I think it's better than not being able to see or hear.

    Facepalm to yourself too. If someone doesn't have the ability to talk, what are they considered? They are considered "mute".


    On topic: I'd rather be mute. You gain strong finger skills if you know what I mean.


    I mean I'd be great at the piano.

    As everyone has said, I'd without a doubt rather be mute. I'm not that talkative either and communicating is easily done in many ways. You should've just put deaf or blind as the choices :p. Otherwise it's too easy, unless there's someone on sythe that's an amazing singer.

    Mute definitely. There's is too much to see and hear in the world. Things like music and art would be heavily missed by me.

    I can manage to communicate via gestures or writing.

    Mute is the obvious choice. It's also not something I'd group with sight and hearing imparities.

    If I were choosing between sight and hearing, I'd rather be deaf.

    But what if you was heading in the wrong direction, how would you be able to hear?

    On-topic: i would like to be none, god bless you all.

    I'd be mute and have a pen and paper with myself, easier to communicate with those who don't understand body language.

    Mute, my mum knows someone who refuses to talk, sort've like a chosen mute.
    They get by, they always carry a notepad.

    I'd rather be a mute, then deaf, then Blind. Tbh, I think i'd be pretty depressed if I was blind, not seeing the world for what It is, I can't begin to imagine what it would be like.

    OT: Poll this?

    Mute. Obvious Choice. No reason to explain.

    Ambivalent.

    Being deaf cuts you off from people.
    Being blind cuts you off from your visual perception.
    Being mute cuts you off from people.

    I couldn't stand having my eyes even slightly blurry, let alone blind.
    I couldn't bear not hearing people too well, it's extremely frustrating for them and ultimately disintegrates relationships.
    I couldn't ever stand not talking to people. I'd go insane.

    I would choose deaf, simply because I could get hearing aids! If my primary audio cortex is completely eradicated, however, then unfortunately, I'll have to go insane.
