ME: Aaah-CHOOOOOO!
DANE: Well, that was unnecessarily noisy.
ME: What do you mean by “unnecessarily”?
DANE: You could have made your point at half that volume.
ME: (Expression of bewilderment, possibly followed by the evil eye.)
DANE: Ha… ha ha ha?
ME: (More of the same.)
later…
ME: Aaah-CHOOOOOO!
DANE: Bless you.
ME: Uh-huh, sure.




Huh, we have that conversation here, only it’s my husband who gets chastised for shouting his sneezes. I keep trying to convince him that it’s not necessary to actually SAY “ah-choo” at the top of his lungs.
His problem is, he has demonstrated an ability to sneeze at normal-person volume, so I know he CAN. It’s not some sort of genetic quirk.
I don’t always sneeze loud; I think the volume is related to the amount of dust causing the sneeze. Maybe.
I am a loud sneezer as well.
I used to be one of those people that plugged my nose when I sneezed, but once I stopped doing that I just became loud.
I try, but sometimes it’s hard to be quiet.
So funny b/c I give Bryan a hard time about how loud he sneezes, I really feel like it’s unnecessary too! Not saying yours is, I’m just saying it very well may be possible
