I have this! Always fun while driving.

It's dominant??? Noooooo.

I'm always making fun of my wife and call her a sneezy vampire but now I might have to turn on my daughters as well?

Actually I can do this.

I have this, and my husband doesn't. We have two kids, one has it and the other doesn't.

So wait. It isn't normal to sneeze when looking at bright lights? Oh cool IG. Hope I don't need eye surgery.

Don't worry! Its not an eye issue. Its the 'cable' that passes from your eye to your brain accidentally sharing certain 'information' to the cable managing your nose.

So you'd need brain/nerve surgery. Nbd
