Paralysis

It'd be just as good if not for the serious and potentially deadly health problems that come with it. Amputations are risky, too, but it's a one time risk...once I recover from my surgeries I should be fine. But quadriplegia could kill ya' at any time...which is a shame because otherwise it might be a good alternative, something I'm sure about having had the pleasure of going out with a quad.

On another note, the more I think about it the more sure I am that I'd prefer to be deaf, too.
