I was given a mahoosive bollocking by a neurosurgeon today
For stifling a sneeze! In a hospital! According to him (and he's got letters after his name and everything) stifling a sneeze is very very bad. All I know is it caused immense pain down both of my arms.
In other news I've applied for three more jobs today.

As you were.

"ninja edit so as to be vaguely on-topic*
I don't know why sneeze-stifling is a bad thing, can anyone enlighten me?

Is this due to your massive AIDS being back?

Because think of what exactly a sneeze is, it's extracting evil spirits [and/or] particals of forign molicuals from your nasal passage.
Eaither way, you don't want that kind of shit in your nose.

It causes immense arm pain
It's alright if it's the just the one arm, but if it's both you're minutes from death.

Sorry to be the bearer etc

"Suppressing a sneeze can be harmful, particularly to your ears...
Studies have found that the air expelled during a sneeze travels at an
amazing 100 miles per hour, and spews out up to 5,000 droplets, which
may be propelled up to 12 feet in a single sneeze.... By clamping your
mouth closed an pinching your nose shut, you force the "sneeze" into
the eustachian tube (which connects the back of the throat to the
middle ear) and then to your eardrum. Sneeze strong enough, and you
could rupture an eardrum, causing acute pain, infection, bleeding, and
even hearing loss."

Deliberately 'popping' your ears is not recommended either, I understand.
Oops. I've done this for years.
