Oddly enough, I say your name whenever someone sneezes.

That's finally caught on, huh? My plan is working beautifully.

I love to sneeze. The sensation is exquisite.

mmmm....I'm going to disagree with Justin, but I will say that it's a remarkable sensation.

"If this is going to be a Christian nation that doesn't help the poor, either we have to pretend that Jesus was just as selfish as we are, or we've got to acknowledge that He commanded us to love the poor and serve the needy without condition and then admit that we just don't want to do it." -Stephen Colbert

Yeah not THAT exquisite. But nice. And Justin, you need to find better partners.

I love sneezing. I also find it bizarre and brilliant how the most random things can make people sneeze. Some people sneeze when exposed to bright light. I sneeze if I suddenly have a particularly sexy thought. THERE IS NO LOGIC TO THIS. It's brilliant! XD

Aw, I feel so normal, I don't have any special sneeze triggers. I just sneeze when something gets caught in my nose and tickles. =[

I sneeze mostly when I'm near a draft or a dusty area. Right now I'm experiencing both as I am working in a library archive. My partner seems to sneeze a lot in the shower, and in our kitchen, which is just weird. I'm relieved my sneezes are not as violent as his, but they can be awfully painful. Here comes another one... ah... ah...

I hate it when I need to sneeze and I can't. Pisses me off. Lots of cussing follows.
Someone once told me that when you sneeze your whole body is involved. She compared it to an orgasim. That broad had problems.

I definitely sneeze sometimes when exposed to bright light. I've never understood that.

I completely lost my eyesight a few years ago when I sneezed and detached the retina in my one good eye.

Not a fun experience.

Interesting note: In Europe, particularly in France, it is not customary to say anything when another person another person sneezes. You just ignore the sneeze and go on with whatever you were doing.

What an interesting typo:

I've always heard that you should never try to hold back a sneeze because the pressure can burst a blood vessel. And when someone sneezes I tend to say "zorgleplex". I'm a slave to the culture of my generation (it's a Muppet Babies reference).

My environmental science teacher has the loudest sneeze I've ever heard. It's a loud, screaming bark... imagine a sick lion roaring in your ear. Some poor girl in the front row cried the first time he did it.

I heard that suppressing your sneeze is dangerous (it could rupture your eardrum, I believe); however, sneezing while driving has caused a lot of accidents.

If you feel like you are going to sneeze, you can press hard and quickly rub back and forth the skin between your upper lip and your nose (mustache area)

I always hit my brake lightly if I feel a sneeze coming on

I can make myself sneeze often when I run my tongue on the back of my mouth. It is SO weird.

This is all reminding me of Chevy Chase's sneezing techniques in that one episode of Community. It makes me lul.

Sneezes are intense. Your heart stops beating, I think something happens to your brain as well, and your body forces your eyelids to stay shut. I've always wanted to know what exactly happens if you're eyes are open when you sneeze...

I've always felt weird saying "bless you" and whatnot seeing as I'm not religious and the backstory behind the saying is ridiculous. Sometimes I wonder if I should start saying something else or not say anything at all, but I'm too lazy to overcome a centuries-old cultural tic that is embedded into my brain.
