What Naomi said. Where I live, people have stopped covering their mouths when they cough or yawn. And, yeah, it bugs me. I miss the days when I didn’t see the tonsils of strangers.
Naomi and Keera - that’s the joke. Gramma is complaining that Nelson doesn’t have manners - he doesn’t say bless you - while at the same time SHE doesn’t have ‘em either - she doesn’t cover her mouth when she sneezes.

Second the ewwww…..and may I point out: she doesn’t have very good manners if she doesn’t cover her mouth when she sneezes!

Maybe he didn’t say “Bless you” because he was upset about being sneezed on.

I get the joke (it’s an old one, after all). It’s just that you see that “joke” played out in real life now. Ewww…
