After a Sneeze do you say bless you, blessshew, or gesundheit?

Either gesundheit or nothing at all. Usually nothing at all. Like I should give a shit when some one sneezes and say something stupid everytime they do it.

I only say gesundheit occasionally because it's what my family did when I was young. (My mom's german)
 
I don't say anything.

What I really hate is the assholes that get all upset when they say "bless you" or whatever and you don't say "thank you" back. WTF? I never aksed you to say that shit when I sneeze, GFY!
 
I stopped saying "bless you" after noticing that a lot of people sneeze 2 or more times in a row. I ain't saying "bless you" for every time you sneeze. It is equally awkward to say "bless you" after the first sneeze, and then not say anything after the following sneezes.
 
My adult atheistic leanings necessitated a muddying transformation from the enunciation of my childhood post-sneeze blessing from God Bless You into "ga-ble-shu".
 
I started not saying anything within the past few years. I find it useless and kind of stupid. I mean come on, do you say something when some one coughs? Clears their throat? Yawns? Shits? Let it go.
 
I grab their foreheads and try to exorcise the demons out of them...

If that doesn't work then a god bless you usually works, which is kinda ironic seeing as how i'm not religious in the faintest
 
i don't have the power to bless people and i don't have the power to command God to bless people, so i don't say anything
 
yeah i don't think "bless you" has any religious connotations whatsoever. at least not when i say it. i'm actually blessing them just so Cthulhu doesn't eat them immediately. he loves sneezers.
 
I have been known to say "scat cat" (a saying I heard others use while I was growing up and sort of unconsciously picked it up).
 
Nothing. There's no reason to. I might as well say, "You just sneezed."

If more people were like you, this would be like Eden 2.
God's so busy administering these blessings for sneezes that he doesn't have time to do anything else.

"Well I was going to keep that truck's brake line from failing before it careened into a crowd of people, but I've got to bless someone who just sneezed three times in a row. Oh well. I'll see them all shortly anyway."
