Well?





I wanted to go with the other form of the words, like "touch" "sight" "taste" "smell" but I couldn't find the right word for "hear" ???

Anyways I voted smell. Thing is, smell is like a lose-lose to me. If something smells good, you're either A.) Going to be eating it shortly anyways, or B.) Smelling something super good that makes you jealous, so there isn't much benefit. Whereas if you smell something nasty, well, there's no benefit to that, so deleting your sense of smell there is actually a perk

thoughts?

I would use smell for work because I work with solvent fumes. Id have to say farewell to taste then.
Sigless users are people too!
if you lose smell you also lose taste
Ave, true to Caesar.
I'd prolly choose taste, cause then I could eat anything I wanted

Smell since my nose already sucks anyway.

I smoke anyway so that fucks up the extra taste I get from smelling food

Kind of hard to choose between smell and taste. But smell feels less intense to me than taste, so I vote smell.

IIRC, isn't there a strong connection between the sense of smell and taste?
Fashion sense
Aren't there like 20 senses?
smell but only if it's not tied to taste
Losing taste seems like a win to me. I can eat all that nasty "but it's good for you" shit like collard greens and not care

Exactly why I voted for taste. Fucking collard greens and celery.

IDK about 20 but there is more than 5. Humans also have a sense of balance, time, and direction, among others.

Sound. Derp
Not being able to taste would be a super power
taste is the only answer

if you choose smell, you also lose taste

sight and hearing are self-explanatory

and if you lose your sense of touch, have fun being the most uncoordinated person ever
live and let live

idk "sense of sound" sounds weird. Like "my sense of smell is diminished" "my sense of taste" sound fine, then with sight you don't need "sense of," you can just say "my sight"

but saying "my sound" is like wtf, and "my sense of sound" also sounds...off

I know there's a strong connection between smell and taste, but they aren't 100% connected, right? Like losing your sense of smell seems like it would just diminish your sense of taste, not lose it altogether.

Have you ever had a stuffed nose from a cold? Do you remember eating or drinking with that stuff nose? Could you taste anything? I couldn't.

I actually have a really good immune system so other than food poisoning a few weeks ago, I haven't been sick in years

What if I just plug my nose while chewing

Same thing. Don't remember plugging your nose when you had to take nasty medicine? Grape flavored liquid medicine is the WORST

If you lose your ability to smell, you can't taste SHIT.

Sometimes something will smell okay and when you take a bite/drink you can taste there's something wrong with it.
you only having 5 senses is not true
you actually have at about 16 to 21 but you only ever hear about the 5 most popular ones
its unfair to poor little kinesthetic sense which gets no love
yusketeer
As weird as this sounds, smelling something that reminds you of a memory feels really good >_>

I'd probably get rid of taste so I can actually eat healthy gross shit lol
