Let's talk about sneezing.

[robvalue]

This came up the other day while driving with my wife and an attack came on.

When I sneeze they typically come in bunches, three to five, sometimes more. Mouth open, very loud (sometimes scares the dogs), eyes closed, whole upper body contracts. Used to get crap for it at work when other people were on the phone. Apparently it's a little distressing for passengers when I'm driving. Especially when doing 70mph.

When driving the thing that sets off the attack is most often is the sun. Specifically, when I'm traveling north or south and turn into the sun. Googled it and I guess it's common but I've only met one other person that sun sneezes. Apparently sex will set off attacks in some people but none that I know or at least have admitted to.

Any one else have similar experiences? Not just with sun but with anything that sets you off (not including allergies/pepper/........)? Can you make yourself sneeze? Anytime I pull a nose hair it's a given, sometimes eyebrow. Are you a singleton or buncher? A loud sneezer or a sneeze stifler? Do you actually say a-choo like I do?

Maybe I'm an aberrant sneezer and this thread will go nowhere.

Yeah! The sun sets me off big time.

When I was younger, I used to get chain sneezing like you. It would usually be at least ten. It happened once during a lecture! Fuck knows what people thought of me.

I remember hearing somewhere that a sneeze is 10% of an orgasm. Something like that.
