Speaking on the Bill Simmons podcast, Stephanie McMahon explained why her father does not like nodding and sneezing.

"He feels like [nodding] influences the room. If someone is talking and someone else is nodding, you're going to influence the room. You shouldn't influence the room. Let people think what they want to think. He hates sneezing because it's involuntary and he cannot control it. He hates sneezing. It's anyone, but especially when it's him," she said.

Basically, control yourself around Vince McMahon. Don't influence the room and don't make any involuntary movements that you can't control.
