A friend of mine is a non-native English speaker. He teaches at an elementary school and works with 'English as a second language' students. He casually mentioned that he always tells his students to take a 'horse bath' in the bathroom sink after recess if needed. He was traumatized when I told him that he'd misheard that phrase for his entire adult life.

"A sneeze is your soul trying to leave your body. Saying God Bless You shoves it back in."

I always say this as a joke. I'm pretty sure it's from the Simpsons, and not an actual historical belief. If you have any source that shows this an old wives tale or folkloric legend, I'd love to see it. That'd make it even funnier to me haha.
