Just saw a skit where the initial joke was saying "good girl" instead of "bless you" after somebody sneezes, and, uh ... yeah, that'll do it for me for tonight

imagine being a new worker at the contagion clinic with sick coworkers You knew it was inevitable but still when B comes into work cuddled in their work jacket looking worse for ware and in desperate need of some soup. You asked them why they didn't stay home and of course B looks at you with the 'oh you sweet summer child' look and says. "why would I? dnot like this whole place isn't meant for passing around a cold" Still you do offer to help with whatever they need. Maybe mid day they take you up on that offer and ask you to help. You wonder what it could be, you assume its to take over on paper work or rounds. Yet before they can get their words out they pull you close and launch a sopping wet snz into your chest. Well its not like you haven't been snzd on by patients before. B looks up at you and through marshy congestion said "i dneed you to help bme with by dnose" Oh you're sooooo getting this cold.

as much as i love a good buildup, i’m also fond of sneezes that come on urgently with no warning, taking both the sneezer and the observer(s) by surprise. especially if it’s a whole fit of them…

sickie who's too tired to cover their own snzs just turning their head into whatever they're laying into (pillows, blanket, person) and letting out the most messy snzs into it and not caring

kissing and licking someone's red twitchy drippy sensitive nose the soft idle but desperate hitching when you swirl your tongue around their rim of one of their nostrils

going to a contagion clinic and getting paired with someone who's desperate to give you their cold. clinging onto you, nose red and streaming constantly, visibly full of cold too. they tell you to get closer while they build up so they can snz in your face and make sure it lands just right Asking if you could play with their nose, having you cup your hand under their nose while they let snz after snz fill it with mess blowing their nose on you just being near you makes them need to snz bc they're thinking about you catching it the air is dence with their germs, each breath you take you're breathing it in you've seen them snz against a mirror or a screen and the amount of spray and mess that comes out it more than you could hope for

A sick one desperately holding back a sneeze because they just KNEW it would be so strong that it would wreck their entire body in their current state

Someone laying in their back with their partner's hand on their chest so they can feel every heaving hitching breath as they build up to a sneeze (or several)

sometimes I wonder how normal people think about colds … do they think about them at all

i find it so unreasonably funny that so many of us have normal, quote unquote ‘important’ jobs and come on here during the day like, “hey guys, so get this: fucking a sneeze… what? oh yes hello, karen, i received the memo, yes, i will look it over as soon as possible. thank you. where was i? sneeze…”
