How about something that actually sounds, you know, plausible?  Like eating the computer moniter?

Even though I find you lack of faith disturbing, how about you try to sing a long note, exercising your vocal cords helps.

Eat a spoonful of peanut butter slowly. Works every time for me, no exceptions. Give it a shot!

Sleeping them off seems to have worked.  Well, they were gone before I went to bed, but I can't remember doing anything to get rid of them, so we'll say sleeping them off seemed to have work.  But the next time I get the hiccups, I'll keep this in mind.

Inflate your lungs to their absolutely fullest capacity and hold it for a few seconds. Always works for me.

I just sit through it and wait for it to go away, actually.

Imagine how it was for that guy who started hiccuping as a teen, then he had hiccups for the rest of his life until the day he died.

The question is, did death bring an end to the hiccups, or did hiccups bring death upon him?

Muahahahahaha *flashlight evil face*

Did he die from exhaustion? I hear it's possible from hiccups.

EDIT: Ninja'd. Kind of.

Well, considering he lived to be in his 70s, I think you can paint a general picture here.
Title: Re: I've got the hiccups
Post by: Uximadesk on September 21, 2009, 06:36:50 PM
But if he was meant to to live to be in his 120's?
Also, is he was catholic, that must have been some awkward masses...

indeed. That is pretty hardcore.

That would make me even more annoying.

Still, they usually just go away after about ten minutes.

Actually he lived to be 97 and spent 68 years with the hiccups.

I get annoyed at my own hiccups the instant they start coming up.  I'd hate to have them for the rest of my life.
