I wish people wouldn’t. I don’t. I think a polite “excuse me” is fine after sneezing, I don’t want to be blessed.
I’m sorry but if you sneeze around me you’re gonna get a Gesundheit and a grin.
Some of my favorites
Amharic - ይማርህ - May God forgive you
Makes it sound like sneezing is seen as a punishment
Kyrgyz - Ак чүч! - This may be based on an onomatopœia of the sound of a sneeze, like the English “Atchoo.”
This is basically what my autistic son does, so it made me laugh
No explanation needed for these last two
Serbian - Pis Maco - Go away kitten
Silesian - Pyrsk! - Cheers
from the thumbnail I thought this was everett true getting mad about sneezes
I had to double check the community too.
My favorite responses are “cut it out” and “out, foul demon!”
My favorite will always be a quiet ‘gross.’
I’ve been using “ew” or “stop” with my friends and it cracks me up every time.
Why do people do this? I’ve never understood.
If somebody sneezes more than twice, I will typically berate them for seeking attention.
It’s okay, I don’t take it personally. It’s just such an odd thing.
