Not both is involve. If you were asked to just choose one, which one would it be?
I say discription, dialogue with no tags or anything will be confusing, and soon you won't know who is talking. Script has some description, so that's a no. Description is okay. It's features full, plot, setting, and all. You can get more from the characters, and you can just describe what's going on. It wouldn't be that bad. Also you have a clearer idea of the story.

I love writing dialogue since I pretty much suck at writing description (much to my chagrin). I just love writing silly little witty comments back and forth and such.

Discription is nice.

I can't write dialogue unfortunately too well, it doesn't flow.

I'm not exactly sure the question at hand. It's not explained fully, at least not to me.

Which is better? Dialogue or descriptions? Choose one and explain why, and what's it's benefits.

Well, this is a toughy.
I love writing descriptions because I've been told that I was good at it. But, you also need dialogue in some places.
I guess in fic writing, I would go with description because if you do it properly, it adds more to the story than spoken words.
But, with script writing, definitely dialogue since the actors really can handle other things.

Script's both...
I meant straight dialogue.
"tom, hear that?"
"Hmmmm? What jared?"
"That sound!!!"
"Mmmmmmmm, footsteps?"
"Yes, I suppose."
"Would it be elizabeth?"
"Why would it be?"
"Oh, I don't know... maybe, I was only guessing..."
"No, she wouldn't be creeping in like that...."
"Well, yeah... Uuuuuuuuh!!!!!"
"Simon, I am gonna kill you, you idiot!"
"Hmmmmmm?"
"bastard you scared us half to death! You made us worry so much."
