I've had the hiccups for an hour now, and I can't get rid of them...

1. Drink a glass of water

while standing on your head and singing the abc's ... always works for me!

:hi:

[MissMillie]

2. This used to work for me

Try a BIG spoon of peanut butter.

(I can't eat peanut butter these days.)

[RebelOne]

3. I'll tell you what works for me,

though you may not want to do it. Take a big gulp of vinegar. It works for me every time.

[Langis]

4. try this

[Spider Jerusalem]

5. Well, hope they go away....

some poor bastard from Iowa had the hiccups for over 70 years...

EDIT: this usually works for me. Hold your breath, close your glottis (swallow and don't release) and count to thirty. If it doesn't work the first time, try again for a sixty-count.

[kick-ass-bob]

6. BOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Did that work?

[PsN2Wind]

7. Sending a picture

[truthbetold]

15. AH!

That was not nice... :faints:

[HysteryDiagnosis]

16. Yeah... but your hiccups are prolly gone.... that is the face btw that

jumps out at you on that empty room with a view site.... the scare site... that's where I found the Pentagon121 flash file... man that is a brain twister.... ever see it? This is just too much to wrap your brain around... professionally done, I hope it isn't a hoax... hardly think it could be one... someone slap me if I've been had paying attention to it.

9. Dammit!

Now I have them!

[caledesi]

10. Works every time.

Got this from a nurse. Take a Q-tip and touch the back of your mouth on your uvula (sp?). (It's that piece of skin hanging down in your mouth). Guaranteed.

[qnr]

11. As a former bartender, I found this to work.

Place a napkin or a clean cloth (something that will make you have to actually work at it) over a glass of water, and suck the water through the napkin.

[Culture Mind]

12. It's all in your mind

just take a deep breath, relax, and willpower them away.

[lapfog_1]

13. Try this

Have someone do an accupressure massage.

On your back there is a pressure point 7 vertebrae down from the
base of the skull. 2 inches to the right. Use the single digit
method and apply a moderate amount of pressure, rub in a circular
motion.

Works for me every time.

[skygazer]

14. Drink a glass of water

With a spoon in it. I don't know why it works but it does. My mom always had me do that.

I hate the damn hiccups. They piss me off!

[the Princess]

17. I have the cure

A teaspoon of sugar. It's gross but eat a teaspoon of sugar as quick as you can and it will stop them - I have never seen this not work.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

18. A spoonful of sugar moistened with a little water

take it slowly.

In a few hours, at the rate this thread's going, you'll have accumulated enough home-remedies to write a book! :hi:

19. INDUCE SNEEZING

Roll a bit of tissue paper into a wispy little thing, lightly tickle the nasal cavity, sneeze out your innards, and proceed to live life as it was meant to be lived!

It sounds gruesome but this is how my dad always cured my hiccoughs when I was a kid

edit: I TELL YOU, THIS METHOD NEVER FAILS
