It surprises me that people want more hearing...
I'll post and say I went for hearing... because I'm deaf in one ear (since birth) and losing it in the other due to my genetics... not being able to hear out of one ear makes it just short of impossible for me to enjoy going out with friends to places that are noisy. Even at lunch with coworkers, I feel like I'm left out, at least a bit, because I cannot pick up everything that is said. I've not been able to use hearing aids, they do nothing in the ear I'm deaf in, and in the ear I'm losing hearing it just makes the high pitched squeal that I hear much louder. I have a copping mechanism, where I basically just agree with whatevers being said, to give me more time to pick up on the context of the conversation... which I've seen some people take me as being socially inept due to it. It can be frustrating for everyone dealing with someone that just doesn't hear well. So due to that, I'd gladly take Superman levels of hearing, any day of the week.
There is one awesome thing about being deaf in one ear though. When I go to sleep at night, I sleep with my good ear into the pillow... pure, wonderful, silence.
