Would you rather ride a carbon road bike or an aluminum road bike?

Why would you rather ride one over the other?

Myself, I find that the carbon road bike is a lot better for the roads in my area. They're not as smooth as paved roads elsewhere and that carbon helps with shock and friction which I'm sure does a number on my bones and joints.
