Easy decision. If you lose your sense of smell you also effectively lose your sense of taste aswell.

Definitely take color blindness.

Yeah if it weren't for the taste thing I would choose smell. But that's a like a two for one. What a dumb poll! I choose colour blindness.

if you had no sense of taste, you could eat healthy for the rest of your life?

Not true. You just lose a large part of your sense of taste.

also, what degree of color blindness are we talking here? Is it like just mixing up the reds and greens or whatever, or is it like pure black/white/grey?

there is no color blindness other than mixing up green/red, or raelly really rarely i think you can mix up yellow/blue.

you mean seeing black and white only? that would be crazy.
i betcha that i got something you ain't got, that's called courage, it don't come from no liquor bottle, it ain't scotch

Dogs are colorblind. So it's obviously possible to happen to a human.

About 1/2 of the males on my mother's side of my family are colorblind. (I'm not one of them) Anyhow, they all manage to get by. The biggest problems they have is distinguishing between colors that are somewhat the same tone, like red/ brown/ orange and light blue/ grey and things like that.

I'd take the color blindness and it's not even close.

I have had almost zero sense of smell since i was born. It dosnt bother me at all. I can still taste things fine too. I think being color blind would be way worse

Color blindness, and it's not even close.

i don't think losing smell makes you lose all that much taste. we got taste buds and stuff made just for tasting. and, you can actually taste a smell. smells have particles in them that can get stuck in your saliva then you taste them.

i vote lose smell

That's why I said effectively. The tongue can taste like 5 tastes, I believe. The rest comes from your sense of smell.

michael1123 was in ventrilo talking about how he doesn't use the 4 color deck. And somehow the conversation got switched to it would be useless if you were colorblind and seeing as michael1123 has anomisa (no sense of smell) i said i rather be color blind than have no smell and he said bull shit.

So i made a poll

I OWN

Well - I am colorblind and it really doesn't affect much. I can still see colors - I just screw em up a lot.

Anosmia would suck except in 2 instances - 1) you're immune from the whoever smelt it dealt it allegation; and 2) cleaning out the fridge wouldn't make you gag.
