Sneezes


O.K.  There are so many new threads that I will have to wait until the weekend to read them all, one of them has over ten pages!  Geez, people!  So I'm starting a new one and unfortunately, it's inspired by true life experience. 


So here's the question...What the weirdest sneezing experience you have ever had? 


Just this morning I was working right along and had just poured a bunch of sunflower seed kernels in my mouth (can't have the shells on them, I'm not that talented) and this sneeze hit me.  Sooooo glad we have cubes.  As it is, my cube wall looked like one of those cartoons where the bees attack and the character jumps behind the door and their stingers get stuck in the door.  Yeah, not pretty.  What a mess.  So, I'm sharing my embarrassment and laughing about it and moving on. 


What about y'all?

Hi Trish-


I sneezed and hiccupped once at the same time and it felt like my throat exploded. Those around me where like "what the hell was that?" as I tried to recover from the pain. NOT GOOD!

I also sneezed once on the air when talking- I couldn't find the silence button on time- that had to sound JUST PLEASANT to the listeners!

There's a woman I work with that sneezes so loudly you'd expect her to explode. She's single and I claim it's her mating call.

I used to have this sneezing in public phobia - I'm over it now.


But it must have been for like 5 years.  So everytime I would start to sneeze I would stop before anything could come out.  I pretty much had the fear that something would happen like Trish's experience.  But it turned out to be more embarassing doing that than just sneezing.  So I got over it.

Not sneezing, but coughing.  I stood up in my Bro-N-Law's wedding and right at the alter I got THE WORST coughing jag (I was coming off the flu).  I was fighting it so hard that my face got red and my eyes watered.  Everyone said it wasn't noticeable, but I think they were being nice.

That just shows that you have a nice family.  My family would have pointed and laughed.  O.k.  Maybe not.  They would have just twitted me about it later.  Unmercilessly.  Until I wanted to hit them.

We have one person at our office who sneezes so loudly I can hear her from my desk on the other side of the building - so occasionally I'll call her on the phone and say "Bless you"

On the other hand, I have an ex-SIL who sneezes like a mouse. I think that's the most annoying sneeze I've run across.

This wasn't embarassing, well telling it is, so maybe this can be my embarrassing story... To try and keep my tyke from picking her nose, any time I caught her I'd say "Pick a winner!" One day, while fighting a cold I sneezed into my hands, and well, it wasn't pretty - so I chased her around the house yelling "Look!!! I got a winner!!!!"

 I was sitting on my motorcycle being cool, leaning back with my feet up on the handle bars when I had a power sneeze come on. I fell off backwards in front of all my friends. To this day if they see me about to sneeze they jump back.

I sneezed with Rasin Bran in my mouth one time and it went all over the place. 


Girls:  don't you hate it when you sneeze when you're putting on mascara--it's still wet and you can't keep your eyes from smooshing shut and smearing it everywhere....

My wife hates it when I make fun of her when she's puting on mascara and I say I bet you can't do that with your mouth closed. Try it sometime.

No Sparky, YOU try it sometime!!!!


I hate it when I get a case of the sneezes when I'm driving.  What are you supposed to do in that case?

Not embarrasing, but interesting.  Both my girls and I sneeze when glare hits us in the eyes.  Did you know that it's a heredity thing?  I thought everyone did that.

MZ, I have a similar problem! I thought I was the only one. I sneeze when I have to burp and can't, but after sneezing then I can burp.

This seemed to have started when I was in my early 20's, I haven't done it all my life. But glad to know I'm not a head case! Well nevermind...

Oh, suuuuuure, Sparky.  Try and find a reason to say that you're not a head case.  Hee hee.  Just kidding.  I'm feeling Starrish today.  Not a bad thing.

Trish, I have to reassure myself once in a while. That is if the other voices let me...

What would they do without our redheaded sass?  This place would be a very boring place indeed.  


You know what I hate?  When the voices in my head argue.
