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.
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.
Why do people do this? I've never understood.
If somebody sneezes more than twice, I will typically berate them for seeking attention.
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
It's okay, I don't take it personally. It's just such an odd thing.
