It's a stupid thing to say anyway, I don't need to be "blessed" every time I sneeze. I'm going to start a new tradition where everytime I fart somebody has to say "congratulations" or something like that.


Well, to me, the simple fact of saying "bless you" is simply being polite to the person sneezing, and nothing more.

And when i sneeze also like the politeness that comes from someone saying bless you, or even gazoontight. Call me weird.

You might think it is stupid, and i suppose it *is* considering the origins of the expression and its use modern use, but i still do it out of simple politeness and habit. Of course, if they sneeze over 2 times consecutively, i stop "blessing" them.

What i don't like, however, is my local US postal employee saying "have a blessed day" to everyone.
