I'd be such a mean motherfucker, like a gangster or something :)
Matthew
But you wouldn't be happy about it.
Nicolas Garcia
Matthew it say we wouldn't be able to feel emotions. Happiness is an emotion which we wouldn't have
bill f
matthew you wouldn't feel sad and its all perception so you would be content as a gangster mofo
Scrblue
He says you wouldn't be happy about it, he doesn't say you would feel sad.
Raxing
i'm gonna be the perfect House
A Royal Muffin
Scrblue Happy is an emotion.
Adam
even though i dont agree with being physically paralyzed, A Royal Muffin, and Nicolas Garcia are f****** stupid.. they are saying that because happiness is an emotion you wouldnt feel happy to be a gangster. jesus fucking christ you people are fucking idiots
Jacob
Feeling no emotions is close to unthinkable. You can't feel happiness nor sadnees, contentment or indifference. You feel neither excited nor bored, you have no motivation for anything at all, and it doesn't make you frustrated. You have no fear, but you don't care about that because you have no joy, nor any curiosity about anything. Still, you're not indifferent as such, because that is also an emotion. All in all, it would leave you very.... well... nothing in particular.

It would make me like one of the nuetrals: I have no opinion one way or the other
Helen
At least if you're paralyzed you can still be around people you love. You could still see, hear, smell things you love. People who are paralyzed can still be happy if they choose to be. What's the point of being alive without that emotion? You feel nothing. No joy. you wouldn't feel motivated to do anything. You're as good as dead.
Alan
Good point. Because you know you can feel so much when you're paralyzed. You know you can be used for a door stop and stuff. You're as good as dead.
Daisy
Buts thats the thing really. People who have ALS have often say that they would rather be dead than be such a burden on their family/loved ones.
Spen
@helen if you had no emotion, you wouldn't mind, cuz you got no emotions. You wouldn't be like "shit, I wish I could feel... *sob*" you wouldn't care, just get stuff done like a badass.
Dennis Kovalev
@Spen, if you had no emotion, you'd have no reason for getting stuff done, or maybe even eating, drinking etc.
Adam
you know hearing and seeing arent emotions right?
Jacob
Spen: why would you get stuff done? You are neither excited, nor motivated, nor curious about anything, and you have zero love or joy in your existence.
Jacob
And once you've gotten it done, you aren't satisfied, nor are you even the slightest bit proud or accomplished.
Jose Luis Zaragoza
but if u feel nothing u wont feel any of the bad feelings such as hate, sadness, guilt, pain, and stuff like that
lanzadam
I will just cackle then walk right past you haw haw u sound like a lame ass bitch
Frezor
Let me lay some science on you, being like Mr. Spock is impossible. Humans need emotions to make decisions. People with brain disorders cutting them off from emotions are even more disabled than someone who is paralyzed.
Alan
Let me lay some science on you, that was the dumbest thing I have ever read. That is all.
SonicDude203
alan you are a f-ing idiot. that is proved science. that is all you dips***
The Psychopath
Let me lay some experience on you. It isn't that bad. We don't /all/ become serial killers like most people believe. It actually allows you to think very clearly. Of course, everyone around you will think you're an insane extremist (I'll admit it, it's true), but it really isn't that bad. And, no, you don't need emotions to think and make decisions as long as you are strong mentally. If you don't have the mental power to function... Well, good luck. IRONY: Some people who don't feel emotions can understand them better than someone who can feel them. Myself included.
Jacob
They're talking about all emotions, not just empathy. You can't feel offended or indignated, nor surprised or afraid.
Rythmbot
If you were paralyzed, the only emotion you would feel is sadness.
Blake
I could totally put a positive spin on it, but alas, I'm still getting the short end of the stick.
Emily Spicer
Honestly, I would rather feel emotion, even if it is sadness then no emotion at all. Even paralyzed you can find joy, and happiness in things. I will always rather be physically paralyzed then emotionally.
Jacob
I'd rather feel infinite sadness than nothing at all.
EarthWormJim
I be a asshole for the rest of my life and don't care then be paralyzed and not be able to do nothing.
Dennis Kovalev
What reason would you have for being an asshole if you have no emotion? You'd not even want anything aside from food, maybe. You'd be a vegetable. If it's physical, at least you can still talk, dictate books, interact with the world, maybe even control robots with your brain in a decade or so.
Matt
no emotions could be a plus
Ben Jacques-Parr
No happiness, no joy, no love I'd rather be paralyzed
Diddly
I would rather be Dexter.
BloodyKnives
Yeah, would never cry or shit
sean
you mean just like i am now. im a nobody
Spen
Sean, saying your a "nobody" shows sorrow. That's emotion.
Ecvsio
@Spen No! That's not an emotion! Just cause his words show an emotion doesn't mean HE feels that

hushii
If you don't have emotions, you would only be hurting others. I'd rather hurt myself then hurt others
Ani Savova
I don't feel emotions but I don't hurt other people either.I know what makes people happy and what makes them sad.Just because I don't feel emotions doesn't mean I don't understand them.
