Other problems with sneezing while gaming include but are not limited to:

  • Walking off cliffs
  • Accidentally driving into pedestrians or other cars in stead of doing so intentionally
  • Smiting the wrong villagers
  • Accidentally casting fireball on the town guard
  • Shooting a teammate
  • Fumbling the ball and/or running right into a defensive player
  • Accidentally building a police station in stead of a fire station
  • Walking off the platform to be eaten by sentient fungi
  • Failing to execute a sweet combo

Depending on which game you're playing, of course.

I think all of this I have had and much of it many times. I simrace too. Sneezing online can be brutal. But sneezing single player, you pause, thinking you're safe. Sneeze. Then realise you're paused mid corner at insane speed and you have NO idea what angle the wheel was at and how far the pedal was depressed.
