When I sneeze, it is almost ALWAYS just one sneeze and I am done. I have known people that sneeze twice almost every time, and a few that usually sneeze 3 times on average. I used to think that the one-and-done sneezers were the majority, but lately I am not so sure. So I decided to conduct a good, ol-fashioned BBS experiment and find out what you fellow posters do, sneeze-wise.
When someone sneezes, instead of saying "god bless you", you should say "you are sooooooo good lookin!!!". * to Behad*
Lately thanks to a sinus infection and allergies, I ALWAYS wind up sneezing like at least 5 times in a row per day. One day while driving home from work, I sneezed like 20 times in a minute. I seriously thought I was going to wreck...that is how bad it was.
I've been having some allergy issues too lately...Could it be a Middle Tennessean thing Manny? 4 or 5 consecutives is usually a string for me.
Almost always 3. Has anyone ever done research on a correlation between the average number of times someone sneezes and how often someone can "do it" (uh-huh-huh)? Now that would be a subject for a doctoral thesis...
Once, and only once. But I've seen people sneeze 11 times in a row counting on their fingers how many times they sneezed. Seeing someone's eyes light up in amazement over something like this is just too funny.
Well, why didn't you vote for 3 in the poll? Raven is trying to do a SCIENTIFIC STUDY you know, and you can't fight science.
Usually 2 for me, but lately, Ive been hitting 4 on a regular basis. Its really a pain in the ass compared to just sneezing twice.
I'd never really thought about this before, and at first was thinking that this was a really stupid thread. Afterall, most people do only sneeze once. Then I sat here at my computer and thought about it, realizing that I do normally sneeze twice. That's odd, something that I'd just never really noticed.
I never realized how well the poll thing works.. too bad I didn't have this back in high school for psychology projects.
I've been having horrible allergies lately too and I'm in Washington State... I usually sneeze three times consecutively except early in the morning when it might be 5-8 times before I get some relief. It sucks.. My older brother suggested that I try some natural immunity builders so I've been taking Bee Pollen and Echinasia (sp?) for the last week and a half. I haven't noticed any change in (I just sneezed 3 times!) my allergies yet, but I'm hoping this will work. Has anyone else tried any homeopathic or natural remedies with any success?
Most of the time, I'll sneeze once, but I have had occasions where I sneezed twice. I don't think I've ever sneezed more than twice in a row, though. Some of my family though, like my mom, can sneeze like 4 or 5 times in a row, or even more. I never could understand how she did that.
Thanks for the participation, guys. It seems it is as I feared: the majority of you people (or at least Rockets fans ) sneeze more than once at a time. I guess I am the weird one. I've been living a lie.
