Oh nice, gotta love this

If someone has hiccups i always tell them to hiccup for me and just keep bugging them to do it over and over, it seems to cure the hiccups alot.

i like drinking pickle juice.

it doesn't cure hiccups, i just like drinking the pickle juice.

I think that's the sickest thing I've ever heard.

I used to do that. It's not bad.

I think i'll stick with the drinking a glass of water upside down method. Somewhat safer.

[moonhead]

Ummmm if the glass is upside down how are you gonna put water in it, let alone drink it?

I personally have two similar hiccup methods that seem to work well...depending on how tolerant you are for discomfort! Holding my breath by itself doesn't seem to work very well anymore, so...

1) Hold your breath and run around in circles for 20-45 seconds without breathing again. Sure, you're gasping for air at the end, but normally when you get calmed down the dang things go away.

2) Hold your breath and tighten your abs and throat...it will force you to gag a few times, but I have this theory that the gagging releases the diaphragm to its normal state and gets rid of the hiccups that way.

Drink a bottle of beer really, really fast (or soda if you're not legal). Then give your bestest belch you've got, and they should be gone.

At least he cured his hiccups!

That's a tad harsh considering two people died...

Very true...but death is the only known hiccup cure that's proven. I think I'll just wait until they go away thank you.
