Real Life Subtitles: Yes or No?

A mysterious man wearing a suit comes out an alley, walks up to you and offers you subtitles for real life. 
The decision is final, irreversible. 
 
Yes, or No? 
 
NOTE: Subtitles do not translate unless you have some knowledge of the language they are using. Once you do, it translates to the language you are most fluent in.

No.

No.

No.

My eyes are naturally drawn to subtitles. If I had them in real life, I would be staring at everyone's chest while they talk to me, which would make it awkward for everyone.

Naw, I can just go

and they'll repeat it for me.

If they translated, yes.

Depends if I get a dialogue wheel as well.

Yeah, I have poor hearing when there's background noise.

No, otherwise I'd always be staring at the subtitles and running into walls and poles and stuff.

Now, if we're talking about closed captions, maybe I'm willing to compromise.

Make foreign languages easier

Nah, it's more cinematic without them.

No, because it would really suck being in a crowded area...

Yes and make my living winning pro spelling bees.

Wait...

No translation?! I retract my vote.

Only if I can read the subtitles later at will, like LA Noire.

@Landon: You know that made me think about it. I said yes anyway but what confirms it is I am a slow ass reader so it will be nice to stare at a beautiful girls chest and have a good excuse lawl!

I cant believe this is a thread that no one has come in and bashed the fuck out of. This has to be the single most random fucking idea I've ever know a human to conceive. I mean, how the fuck did you even come up with a question like this? Were you trippin on DMT?

Oh, my answer is hell fucking no. I don't need to read what fucktards are saying to me as well has hear the idiocy.

god no

No, but an invert camera option would be nice.

Subtitles, and a dialogue wheel. 
 
It's the future. You can have a special chip inserted in the retina that links to your brain and poses different answers to things, and it lets you choose what you say. 
 
That sounds amazing, actually.

No, because I'm a court reporter and then I'd be out of the job.

Can I skip ahead if I can read faster than they're talking?

I accidentally clicked no but I'm not sure if I would or not. I'd consider it.

I can imagine going to the toilet would get pretty annoying in the long run.

PfffffffffffffffffffftFART *plop*

Or when you're sleeping next to someone

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Hell, just imagine trying to enjoy some silence!

No. Don't wan't to break the immersion.

No, unless it's some kind of device I hold in my hand so I can understand a different language and vice versa; 'cause if it's for everything else that I understand, a lot of it would probably be grammatically incorrect I'm guessing. I voted no, unless it's for a good use.

Haha yes, because the subtitles would pop-up before whoever was speaking finished talking and I could finish all of their sentences and freak people out. Plus I have kind of shitty hearing. Also, eavesdropping would be really easy, so I'd be a great spy.

No thanks. I'll just use my Babel fish.

Honestly, it was the bit about translating the language that broke it for me. If I'm learning the language, I would rather learn to be fluent in it, not just translate all of it.

Always be subtitling.

I love it when skits/music videos etc. put stylized subtitles on the screen while the characters talk.

No thank you, sir.

no thanks only if I was deaf would I want subtitles .Does that mean when your talking to a girl you like you can look at her boobs all night and just tell her you were reading her subtitles and get away with it ,man i wish i changed my answer .

Yes.

Hell yes.

I am deaf and absent minded enough for this to be useful. So yes.

Well how much knowledge do you have to have in the other languages for them to translate? I've taken a couple semesters of French and, more recently, a semester of Spanish. I'm far from fluent in either language, but I know what many basic words mean.

EDIT: I just thought of a big reason not to have them. I do not want the bottom of my vision full of words, as I am driving, if I'm listening to music at the same time.

Actually, if you consider it from the perspective of the back of your neck, it's actually like that by default.

Nope, do not want.
