This may be over-egging it just a teensy weensy bit. ;D
Hehehehe. I'm making my friend name her first born that, regardless of gender. ;D
I think that's child abuse. XDD
It no child abuse. It's good comedy. And besides, at least they're real names, instead of Lafondequisha. (I legit know a chick with that name.)
Or Shithead, no seriously, it was pronounced She-theed
Hahaha. Or Orangejello and Lemonjello. (Or-ang-allo. Le-mang-allo) And Mothafer

...Wow. I bet the mother was hungry when she named them. Mothafer is just cruel

Yeah, I know. we always used to call him MoFo or Muzzy but one day a new teacher did come in and say, "Who is Mother f'er?" Couldn't stop laughing!

Oh man, I would have been crying from laughing so hard. You kinda have to feel bad for him though, it must suck having that name.

Sorry I'm late (and not been posting much these days).  I have friends (who are pagan/agnostic) who usually say when someone sneezes in our group "Out out Foul Demon".  It's quite funny.

And in as far as ridiculous names, I was doing data entry years ago and came across the name Harry Moron.  And nearly died laughing.  Worse yet, Harry Moron was getting a speeding ticket, double humiliation.

If we are still talking funny names, I just got a text from my mom telling me that she is currently taking care of a patient named Harry Johnson. It was not short for anything. She told me she was having a hard time keeping a straight face while seeing him.  :D

No, it was this old man. I just feel bad for him, all of the nurses in the break room were laughing their asses off.

...but I do love the bit he does about saying "when you die nothing happens" to atheists after they sneeze.

Ooh!  Along the same lines, but cooler sounding, I think, would be to say after they sneeze, "Annihilation!"

Or, "Oblivion!"

When someone sneezes, in Spanish you say, "salud" which means health, or you can say, "Jesus." When I was little, a man sneezed and I said, "Jesus" he looked at me and said, "I am a Jew, and I have nothing to do with that man!" Ever since, I have never said anything to anybody when they sneeze.  :-X

Lol, sorry to laugh at you, but that man is kinda awesome.

Also, I never quite  understood the socialogical obligation to say something when someone sneezes. I think i'm going to stop saying anything all together.

I find some people get offended when they're not blessed after sneezing, as if I were secretly wishing them bad health.  I just say "bless you" and leave god out of it.

If they are offended. Too bad.
I don't like the words "bless you" either because it's laced with holy superstition.

But it's worse than that, after a sneeze a person is vulnerable to possession by a demonic spirit.
Your failure to bless leaves them wide open to possession.
Perhaps we should ask sneezers if they have been possessed by a  demon.

Applications for various things should ask:

Have you since your last exorcism sneezed?
If so did someone bless you to ward off possession?
If no do you have the ability to read the line second from the bottom on the chart behind you without turning?
