As a little kid, I thought it was "blesch you". As that was kinda what sound a sneeze makes.

Responses to a 3-sneeze series:
1st: Bless you.
2nd: [look skyward] HEY! I SAID 'BLESS THEM!'
3rd: Oh, now you're just milking it.

Ill say 'bless you' once, but if you keep sneezing after that I'm calling you out for being greedy.

Don’t forget “Shut the fuck up”. That’s what me and my husband say to each other, in a loving way!

We say this to each other for so many things!! Lol as soon as one of us walks out the bedroom in the morning... "didn't I tell you to shut the fuck up?" "No, you forgot." "Oh. Well, shut the fuck up." We enjoy our banter very much.

Why are there multiple comments suggesting this?

There's another meme like this that says to say Godzilla.

It’s non denominational

2 years ago | Likes 14 Dislikes 1

Yes, but how did multiple people come up with the same idea? Is it referencing something?

2 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 0

I saw it somewhere on here and have been trying my damndest to spread it around. I've actually got a couple people at work saying Godzilla omeone sneezes.

I mean, I saw it on here somewhere in meme form. Possible that’s where most other people got it as well

Because it is the indisputably correct answer.

I sneeze silently because I just want to have an autonomic reaction in peace.

I wish I could. I tend to sneeze multiple times when I get to work, every morning. It's very bright in the office, and some of us have a thing where bright light can trigger a sneeze reflex. Some nerve-crosstalk thing possibly. But yeah...sneezing does not require a verbal response, and it's so bizarre that it's such a common thing.

I did that for the best part of my life, holding the sneeze in so it don't make no sound. until one time when I did it, it kinda hurt, and didn't stop hurting for like two weeks. well, I don't hold it no more, and it be loud, o lord it be loud sometimes...

There are some that I just let through because I intuitively sense it would be a bad idea to hold them. I honestly don't even remember how I trained myself to stifle them, just why I did it, and I'm not sure I could really un-train it at this point.

As a guy, it didn't know it was possible for us to sneeze at less than 100 decibels.
