    I would beg to differ. Smell is important in taste, and also in making sure food is safe to eat. It also is an alert system to tell you if something is burning, or if there is a gas leak or something-- and that's just to name a few things!
    Strangly enough, there was a gas leak at work today and had I turned the oven on through lack of not smelling the gas I would have died from the resultant explosion.

    I would give up hearing things, because all my other sences are just that more important to me.

    I rest my case.

    OOC:The filesizes of those two gifs in your sig are way too big. You may wanna get rid of them before Leeza snips the whole thing.

    I wouldn't mind losing nociception if I simply couldn't be killed or paralyzed or permanently injured. In such cases, the ability to feel pain is a complete and total non-necessity.
    Jack: How do you know?

    Will: It's more of a feeling really.

    Jack: Well, that's not scientific. Feeling isn't knowing. Feeling is believing. If you believe it, you can't know because there's no knowing what you believe. Then again, no one should believe what they know either. Once you know anything that anything becomes unbelievable if only by virtue of the fact you now... know it. You know?

    Will: No.

    If Demolition Man were remade today

    Huxley: What's wrong? You broke contact.
    Spartan: Contact? I didn't even touch you.
    Huxley: Don't you want to make love?
    Spartan: Is that what you call this? Why don't we just do it the old-fashioned way?
    Huxley: NO!
    Spartan: Whoa! Okay, calm down.
    Huxley: Don't tell me to calm down!
    Spartan: What's gotten into you? 'Cause it sure as hell wasn't me.
    Huxley: Physical relations in the way of intercourse are no longer acceptable John Spartan.
    Spartan: What? Why the hell not?
    Huxley: It's the law, John. And for your information, the very idea that you suggested it makes me feel personally violated.
    Spartan: Wait a minute... violated? Huxley what the hell are you accusing me of here?
    Huxley: You need to leave, John.
    Spartan: But Huxley.
    Huxley: Get out!
    Moments later Spartan is arrested for "violating" Huxley.

    By the way, that's called satire. Get over it.
