Gesunheit/Bless You are about equal here, but never God Bless

"Bless you" here.
Never Gesundheit; although many adults would recognise that from American TV/ films/ books it would be seen as pretentious. Like saying gasoline instead of petrol. |

Was fairly common among my family/social group. Maybe I'm pretentious?

I have honestly only heard it once. And that guy was a pretentious prick. So that might have coloured my view. |

The only people I've known who say Gesundheit were deliberately choosing it as an atheist alternative to "bless you."
