And it has all kinds of implications and context and shit.
How the fuck am I supposed to tell what's just people doing things at random and what's a part of all-singing-all-dancing-shit-show the neurotypicals call "social norms"? Down with NTs.
Honestly while it's really fucking annoying that refusal to participate could result in some silly neuronormo interpreting a completely innocuous action as an offense, and it can cut you off from social shit, I think it's basically the only way. The same button never does the same thing twice. Screeching rn.
Why do people have to say "bless you" when someone sneezes? Surely even people who believe in souls don't still think your soul escapes when you sneeze? Why do people even have to comment on normal bodily functions at all? Why is it rude if I don't respond to people responding to me making an ordinary, involuntary bodily noise??? AHHHHHHHHHH
I used to say "don't worry, I'm not superstitious" a lot when people said bless you and just quit because no one thought my actually hilarious joke was funny. 😞

I've started saying "nice one" because everyone assumes you said "bless you" so they automatically follow it up with a "thank you" anyway
I usually say some shit like "I've no use for blessings" lol
In Poland we say "Na zdrowie" which literally means "For good health". Even if it's only an allergy, I think it's nice to wish people good health after a sneeze.

Your heart can hiccup/stop if you sneeze hard enough. It's kinda like a "In case you pass out/die". I'm not NT, but I was born, raised, and live in the Southern US. I kinda just autopilot it.
I have often said, "no thank you" or simply "no" in response to that lol
This usually makes me uncomfortable lol
