Marketing bollocks, buzzword bingo, or your mum saying "fudge" when she really wants to swear like a trooper. Let's ride the hockey stick curve of this top hat product, solutioneers.

Thanks to simbosan for the idea

"Bless you!"
Not the phrase itself, but the offence some people take when I don't utter it after they sneeze (what with me being neither religious nor superstitious).

How many souls
has the devil added to his coffers through this negligence?

My (supposedly) Roman Catholic flatmate has turned this on its head
When anyone sneezes near him, he swivels round and intones "NOTHING HAPPENS WHEN YOU DIE".

I hate this too, I try not to say it but then there can be a tense silence after they sneeze.

Some people I know say it all the time, it's exhausting listening to it
*sneeze*
"bless you"

-pause-
*sneeze*
"bless you"

--bit of a longer pause--
*SNEEZE*
"bless you"

.....SERIOUSLY????
