I spent several years in Germany between ages 7-10, so I tend to get curious looks from Texans (where I live now) when I say "Gesundheit" after a sneeze; which basically translate's as wishing good health to the person who was sneezing. In Germany it's typical to then say "Danke" or Thanks afterwards in appreciation, but here in the states, I've found some do or some don't (I always say Thanks out of habit whether someone says "Bless You", "God Bless You", "God Bless", or "Gesundheit" - the latter I've only hear from my mother or father - my sister having taken the Christian faith has translated over to using "God Bless You" herself).

It's odd how the habit's from our childhood can either remain with us into adulthood or not.

I always say bless you. Even to people I don't know on the street.

But to the bunch sneezers, I say it twice and after that I just give up. Their milking it after that.
