My dad once felt a sneeze coming while brushing teeth. He tried to suppress it and closed his mouth, resulting in a mouthful of minty toothpaste pressure-washing his nose.
He didn’t recommend this experience at all, besides the burning agony that lasted quite a while, crumbs of dry toothpaste kept falling out of his nose for like a week sporadically.

It would have cost you nothing not to post this
True, and likewise, the same for you to ignore it.
If you feel a sneeze coming on, pinch the soft tissue at the bridge of your nose. For me, this stops a sneeze 99% of the time.
Or press the tip of your tongue very firmly against the roof of your mouth. Helps me mitigate sneezes
Tangentially related, press your tongue as flat as possible against the roof of you mouth to speed up recovery from brain freeze.
These are the tips that the Kleenex company doesn't want you to know! LOL
This is the best sentence I've heard all day. 😂 Much appreciated!
Sneezing with a mouthful of anything is the worst. Even if you try to mitigate the damage by covering your mouth, it just blasts out everywhere.
That's fucking awful I'm so sorry
Are you really so preoccupied with the abilities of your flesh and bone prison that you felt the need the share this with us?
Hahahahahaha.
Yes.
Did it come out your nose?
Lol, no. Just spat some out.
That sounds dreadful
