Honestly, I can't really decide. I know smell would seem like the obvious choice, but I have a cold and can't smell anything. It sucks.

So I guess I'd choose taste, and eat really healthy stuff without tasting the nastiness. But still, no taste means no tasting burgers, pizza, and other delicious stuff

Sense of smell. I hardly have one anyway so for the most part the things I smell aren't overly pleasant.

It is a well known fact that no person completely understands irony until he/she has pretended to pretend to wear a geeky t-shirt ironically. :P

Its a tie between smell and taste, taste would be bad for things that I enjoy but it can be positive for things that can help me but I hate. Smell on the otherhand helps when something smells bad but its not good when you need to check milk, or want to smell some purty flowers. Id go with smell, but losing the feeling of touch would be cool, as you could look like a badass when something painful happens to you and not a single bit of pain hits you...

Smell, definitely. I could learn to cope with that but any of the other senses would be extremely difficult to cope with.

Lose hearing, give up on guitar and maybe video games.

Lose sight, give up on video games, computers, and maybe guitar.

Lose touch, give up on guitar and maybe video games. Pretty much anything that requires physical sensation and feedback to properly use.

The only other one is taste. Life would be bad with no taste. Eating would be a monotonous affair only broken up by different textures.

Smell if I had no choice. Now blindness, that I would never want to have. I couldn't live my life without sight but smell I can live without it.

I don't think a lot of people realise that taste and smell are very closely linked. If you lost smell you'd lose taste as well. I think I'd go with feeling.

I've basically got very little of smell so that wins by default for me. But if I could smell then I'd choose taste.

Touch, definitely can't live without the others. But won't losing your sense of smell also make you lose your sense of taste :?

Sense of taste. I mean, when you can't smell you can't really taste either so you're pretty much killing out two senses, and the other ones are important to me.

Sadly that's rather flawed. No feeling, no stimulation, no erection :P Also, you wouldn't be able to feel pain, so you probably wouldn't know when you had to pee :lol: It's a tie between hearing and smelling for me. I realise if I lost smelling I'd partially lose tasting, too, but there are plenty of scents I don't need to be able to smell in my day-to-day life; old women who bathe in cheap, sweet smelling perfumes and farts are some of them. If I can't hear, I'd still be able to enjoy things like games, books and my PC, but sadly I'd lose the ability to listen to epic gaming music, good music in general and the sweet sounds of the world..

Well, I like Music too much to lose hearing.

Food is like my hero, so i can't give up taste. (even if I lost smell, i could stil taste something)

I don't really think I could cope with being blind. Sight is too amazing.

it'd be hard to live without being able to feel things.

I gues smell would affect me the least, so I'd have to go with that.

I choose smell cause I always have flues and can't smeel anything. Although I know If i don't have smell my taste will be affected.

Not entierly sure but its either smell or taste.

I've all but lost my sense of smell. I don't miss it. The chemicals at an old job ruined my sense of smell and damaged my throat pretty bad. I can smell really strong smells, but I can't smell most things. This leads to a paranoia that I really stink and am just oblivious to it.:P

While I understand the logic behind this it's also like saying you don't taste anything when you're sick and have a clogged nose, which is not true.

I'd pick smell.

Proprioception. The sense of where my body is in space. Although, that wouldn't be able to do the horizontal lambada at night anymore... >.> Never mind. Smell.
