just gonna bring the tmi to the yard and say that while taste is a very very close 2nd, sound is so so important, maybe as important as the putative "main" sense i.e. touch

cosi fan whitford (underrated aerosmith bootlegs I have owned), Friday, 25 May 2012 18:24 (fourteen years ago)

These are all essential and tied for second place imo

Johnny Fever, Saturday, 26 May 2012 01:32 (fourteen years ago)

sound, hello

Word of Wisdom Robots (Abbbottt), Saturday, 26 May 2012 02:25 (fourteen years ago)

all of the others are way easier to obscure, too, sound's important because you have to pay attention to it, if a baby's crying next door then it's just not happening
so it has the most unavoidable negatives and the strongest positives

Word of Wisdom Robots (Abbbottt), Saturday, 26 May 2012 02:26 (fourteen years ago)

can't concur there, I can shut out pretty much anything, I have magic sex hearing

WHERE IS HORNINESS, THE SIXTH SENSE

touch >>> sound > sight > taste > smell.

but yes, all are crucial

sight/sound tie

pet tommy & the barkhaters (darraghmac), Saturday, 26 May 2012 10:09 (fourteen years ago)

I don't think sight adds anything for me, really? Sound is correct imo.

how did I get here? why am I in the whiskey aisle? this is all so (Laurel), Saturday, 26 May 2012 12:54 (fourteen years ago)

smell for sure, is that TMI? guess this is the place.

Euler, Saturday, 26 May 2012 15:25 (fourteen years ago)

what about that sense Karl Pilkington talked about where you can tell someone's staring at you

Smell is very underrated.

Trey Imaginary Songz (WmC), Saturday, 26 May 2012 18:03 (fourteen years ago)

sound, for sure.

This is like ranking the importance of my fingers.
I will never really understand the tendency to rank and poll everything.

the entire purpose of this poll is to get people to talk about doing it

that is a weird thing to bring up over lean cuisine (DJP), Wednesday, 30 May 2012 19:48 (fourteen years ago)

think of it as a collaborative real-time Fifty Shades of Grey

I tend to go for a mannered "my semen, for you"

lately I'm working "thank you...drive...through"

most nights I sleep alone on the couch downstairs

sometimes I'll holler "SHIPOOPI"

'bingo' iirc

mookieproof, Wednesday, 30 May 2012 19:59 (fourteen years ago)

I don't say anything. I don't want the person in the next stall to know what I'm doing.
