gesundheit

Used as a reply in certain contexts when someone has just said something quite verbose or confusing. "Bless you" can be used in the same way in this sense. Not all native speakers of English use it.
From the A Way With Words (waywordradio.org) radio show, Aug. 23, 2010:

Grant Barrett: "It's the second person singular indicative present of the verb 'to see', s-e-e."
Caller: "Gesundheit."

gesundheit

Reflex response to a person who has just sneezed.
I forgot to tell you, I sneezed at work the other day and farted at the same time. Ron said "gesundheit", so I'm fairly sure he heard the fart also. It was loud!

The Gesundheit

During sex when you throw black pepper into the woman's face and she sneezes, which causes her pussy to tighten on your dick.
Last night she was in the heat and we were on round three. I had a hard time finishing so I tried "The Gesundheit" and it gave me the bump I needed to get to the finish line.
