If you sneeze, and nobody is around to "Bless You", do you feel somehow..incomplete and/or kind of "unBlessed"?
There's a girl at my work, when I said "bless you!" once to her loud sneeze? She told me "I don't believe in "bless you"s and I was kinda...awuuuh? I didn't get her to explain because it's kind of...personal? Maybe? I don't know. Like, maybe she feels like God has forsaken her by giving her allergies in the first place, so blessings only furthers the...forsakingness?
I don't know, I sneeze a lot, so I don't expect it all the time. That is, I expect it more around strangers than people who know me.
there's a dave attell bit about air fresheners that basically says the same thing. he's like, you're not fooling anyone! is there a lemonade stand in here? i know what you did! it smells like lemons and ass. and ass will always win. hehheh.
Saw your comment on rosephile's lj and had to know more about this bizarre person who aces gen chem and biochem but not organic :-)
I've added you, but I can de-friend if that's creepy or something. Add me back?
I had a friend who brought up a similar question about gum and bad breath. If your breath smells like crap, and they pop in some gum, doesn't it just smell like minty crap?
These are the questions that will boggle generations of men.
I shall SO add you back. Any pal o' rosephile must be a good egg! (in my book, anyway ;)
I know, I know...the chem thing? I don't know...I think it was just Nursing school pressure/ retardilation.
To be frank, a big problem for me during Orgo, was that my professor was not a native English speaker.
Bottom line? The "class" had over 400 people in it, AND the professor's accent was so thick that he may have well been speaking Klingon during lectures.
I think all of the ethyl-methyl-hexablahtanebromohydroblarghitty8diablah combined with all of the bonds and diagrams and such was just too much info to process at 8 in the morning.
(Dumb biotches who didn't care about the program would also never SHUT THE FUCK UP!)
Um, I got an A in lab though. I'm special.
Minty crap?! *coffee dribbling out of nose due to laugh spasm*
