[PaulMacC]

What would you rather be and I mean no offense to anyone Im just seeing.

[Wayne]

If I had to choose I would be deaf, as I could get a hearing aid. ;)

[jackass]

I have already done this poll.

[Jamie!]

Sorry I forgot to search

[Faye]

id be dumb and then just go back to school.

[Charlie]

I'd rather be dumb out of all those if i had to have one, simply because i couldn't stand not being able to see or hear things, but with no being able to talk, to you could right on some paper or just use sign language which just seems better then putting up with the others, no offend to people with it. ;)

[Jamie!]

i always thought being 'dumb' was when you was blind & deaf? or am i thinking of something else?

Something else.

The morely common used 'dumb' is not knowing the answer and if you cant talk you dont know the answer.

The dumb we use today orginated from dumb being not able to talk

[Eamonn]

I am assuming by your 'dumb' that you mean abit ******ed? If so, deaf.

You aren't perfectly normal if you have no voice O.O

[Describe]

No - Dumb as in not being able to talk

That isnt referred to as dumb is it?
I always thought the concept was simple; MUTE.

[Dumb ftw]

[Soil]

What exactly do you mean by dumb.
If it was either blind or deaf, then deaf.

[WarezKid]

I'm deaf myself, and as i was looking around, some people were saying that they wouldnt hear and would be blind :rolleyes:

I'm deaf, in my left ear and no hearing in my right [NOTHING].

I wear a hearing aid on my left ear, and guess what. I speak better and hear better then others who got better hearing then me :P

Guess i just was lucky
I would choose deaf, as i know what it is like to be deaf :8

[Concentric2]

You aren't perfectly normal if you have no voice O.O
So yes ******ed.
So are blind and deaf people ******ed too?

[Jord]

deaf who would want to not see wont be able to do nothing or be ******ed.

[SusieC]

Dumb because I probably couldn't imagine not being able to hear or see.

[Axel]

Dumb because you still have you recieving senses.

[Nightrose]

Dumb
i couldnt live withoiut my music
ill die

[Virgin Mary]

How dumb? I mean, I'd be okay being just like in bottom tier classes if it meant I could see and hear.

[Mentor]

Id say dumb, since its the least botherful. Seeing as if you think about it. If your deaf, you cant communicate verbaly anyway, if your dumb, you still cant communicate verbily (so still need sign) but you are still able to hear anyway, so you loose less in the long run.
Out of deaf or blind id go deaf also, i wants easy use of my internets dag nabit!

ps. of dumb people(j/k :p), dumb in this case refers to someone who is unable to make sounds /speak. :P

[Shawnstra]

Dumb. I don't talk much.

[Sammeth.]

So are blind and deaf people ******ed too?

"******ed; having developmental disabilities: an offensive term meaning not intellectually or emotionally developed" - So I guess by definition, the answer to your question would be no. And dumb people aren't either. Being blind, deaf or dumb would be someone who hasnt physically developed as they should. Not intellectualy or emotionally. ;)

Anyway, I opted for Dumb. I cant imagine life without vision.
