Elimination of the Bless You.

Even when I believed in god I thought the “bless you” after a sneeze was stupid. When my girls would sneeze I would say “spread the cheese”. Why? It was just as stupid but mine was funny. I’ve taken to ignoring people who say “bless you” when I sneeze. Some may think I’m being asinine, so :-)

    Actually that raises a good question. I don’t say bless you to someone when they sneeze, even if I’m the only other person. I’ve felt looks from them like they were angry at me being non-caring.

    What do you do in this situation, say in a business meeting?
