I don't say anything. I stopped years ago. The odd time if someone blesses me I'll say to them "who are you to bless me? Are you an ordained minister". Kind of as a joke and kind of not. I'm blessed to be alive and that's that.
I usually say “blessings, child” in an elderly American southern lady’s voice for the first sneeze, don’t say anything for the second, and after that it’s “shut up already”
I’m fine with “May the Flying Spaghetti Monster touch you with her noodly appendage.” No backhanded curses from the gods who burn people who dislike their nincompoop sons
(Yes, FSM is a she — only infidels would say otherwise)

Is this redditorbait? A ploy to gather comments of Redditors outing themselves as cringe people lacking social skills?

No
shrekingcrew@reddit
Sometimes, I just let out a quick “Whoop!” after someone sneezes.

This is great I can’t wait to try this!

Possess you

Stop being offended by little things is a better idea.

Everyone knows the correct response is "May our dark Lord Ozzy mistake you for a bat!"🙄
Fuyukage@reddit
No
FGFlips@reddit
My wife and I always say "Calm down." after one of us sneezes.
EhMapleMoose@reddit
I say bless you for the first two and the third I go okay, you’ve been blessed enough you can stop.
Konklar@reddit
Well, bless your heart! I will not.
Fragraham@reddit
Well bless your heart.

Mesoscale92@reddit
“Stop that!”
Syfyruth@reddit
Instead, how about “oh, fuck off!”
AlrightyAlmighty@reddit
I like "yuck"

When someone sneezes I don't say anything. But if they keep sneezing I yell at them. My friends like it and I don't interact with strangers
Your_As_Stupid_As_Me@reddit
Similar, I say nothing the first time, anytime after that I look at them funny and ask them in a very rudely tone "can you breath now? Jeez".
EmpireStrikes1st@reddit
I haven't done it in years. I can tell you it doesn't make much difference.
HubblePie@reddit
Well I can't remember how to spell gesundheit
GulfCoastLaw@reddit
Are you Teams messaging gesundheits to people when they sneeze in the office, though?!?
HubblePie@reddit
Yes.
Maniklas@reddit
Pretty sure you did it correctly
HubblePie@reddit
Yeah. Because I googled it.
Mr_Cigarette@reddit
Yes, I agree. I don't even think it's crazy.
4d_lulz@reddit
I stopped that years ago. "Blessing" someone doesn't keep away disease. Or pollen, for that matter
4N_Immigrant@reddit
"you're soooo good lookin'"

I know you meant FSM as Flying Spaghetti Monster, but I read it as First Spinjitzu Master. My love for Ninjago is too strong.
soulself@reddit
I have genuinely pissed people off by not saying bless you after a sneeze. Its a stupid tradition and I loathe feeling obligated to perpetuate it.
teeohbeewye@reddit
ok, i'm already not saying that
ChristoStankich@reddit
okay, sorry
digidave1@reddit
I don't say that cuz I'm not a medieval peasant
