Shawn hosting Amy's show

[ Edited ]

First off, I love Shawn and this is just an observation, and no one is perfect. But she was just hosting Amy's show and sneezed 3x while only turning away from everyone sneezing out into the open. She never covered her mouth or said excuse me. Now I am in my 50's too, but this seems such common manners to me. I was raised to do this, that I always cover my mouth and say excuse me. She never does, and I just find it very surprising.

Re: Shawn hosting Amy's show

When my child was in elementary school, students were taught to sneeze in their elbow. I guess that way, germs don't fly and the sneeze was not on their hands that could also spread germs.

Since then, I always sneeze into my elbow if I don't have access to a tissue.

I learned the "sneeze into your elbow" suggestion when I worked at an elementary school, too.

 

When I saw Shawn was hosting PMS, I "clicked" away.

SO CLASSY - NOT.

 

Sounds like a child's behavior. She's an ADULT and should know better.  SMH.

I've been waiting for the comments to start.  So silly.  So she sneezed.

Sometimes I feel like people watch just to find something, anything, to be upset about.  Then they immediately come here and post.   It was a sneeze and nothing like described.

I take an antihistimine before I go out in public if I am having an allergy attack.

@Tori3569  And there are those who feel the need to monitor everyone's comments. I don't recall ever saying I was upset, so save the drama. And it was exactly as I described, and you obviously missed the point of the post.

 

Most people with manners don't sneeze out in the open with others around without at least attempting to cover their mouth. It's inconsiderate, especially at this time of the year when things are going around.

  Likely, someone will report this  thread as " unkind to Host  " and will be poofed.

I saw that @KittySoftPaws .  She was standing next to the models Ellen and Stacey.   I bet they were cringing inside while keeping a smile on their faces.
