There's a guy I work with who holds his nose and shuts his mouth tight when he sneezes. It sounds excruciating and after every sneeze he says, "OW!". :dread:

Just sneeze out of your mouth into your hand and it's pretty quiet.

People who actually say, "AH CHOO!" When they sneeze do my strawberry floating nut in. The CHOO is always after the actual sneeze so obviously isn't a part of it so why do it?!

Actually I have just realised my mistake. I was on the bus. Problem solved.

I always sneeze really loudly and have no idea how to stop it. I've tried holding it in and my ears nearly blew off.


I find that pushing up the bit of skin above the mouth (moustache area) helps stop a sneeze coming on. It is very weird.

Actually, I just googled that, and pinching that area below your nose is an actual thing that works for some people. Worth a try.

I didn't mean I wanted to stop the sneeze, just the massive "AAAAACHOOOOOOOO!!!!!!" that comes along with it. :lol:

Yes but as far as I'm aware cupping your hands doesn't prevent all the sound from coming out of them.

Royal mail. The parcel depo opens late one night a week. Current time per customer... 10 mins. And there's a strawberry float off queue.

Sneeze into the inside of your elbow. Much more hygienic, as you are unlikely to be grabbing or touching anything with it.

Yes, that is a known fact. It is hard to instinctively do it though.

Jake Humphrey.

He was actually likeable when he presented F1 on BBC (and a every capable presenter) but, ever since moving to BT Sports, he seems to have magically transformed into an unbearable, smug bellend.

He also ends almost every single tweet with an ellipsis... As though his tweets are so interesting and thought-provoking.
