Topic: The worst time to sneeze Posted: August 04 2010 at 19:50 |
Over the course of the 22+ years of my life I have been subjected to a variety of situations where I had to sneeze, some of which with disasterous results.
Which of the above scenarios sounds the worst to you? Also, a sneezing fit can also be considered in your decision making.

I'm surprised that sneezing with your eyes open isn't on here, according to the legend that your eyes would pop out if you were to do so. For me, I'll go with sneezing with a mouth full of food. I've actually had that happen before, and it's not fun.

Definitely 'While watching cabbage.' If one of them hears you sneezing, you might as well just give it up .

The worst for me was when eating; how come that's not in the poll? I will spare you the details, I'll just say that noone at the table could eat any more. But it could be worse... Like when driving, I think.

While Sneezing also sounds like a good name for an indie band or, coming more towards the progressive field, a math rock band.

Honestly, if you're able to sneeze during your own brain surgery, something is terribly wrong... you might have picked the wrong hospital.

If it's cunnilingus, great minds think alike.

Not something anyone will run into anymore, but you do not want to sneeze on an LP.

Bah, you can wash your LPs. Sneezing while performing a brain surgery - or any surgery - is not good. But I tend to think that surgeons tend to stop their activities a few seconds when they feel the sneezing coming (THE SNEEZING IS COMING - the great concept album of 2011, available on LP/CD/MC/MP3/FLAC on Shred Records). Of course, sneezing when kissing and/or having sex is also not good.
