Glass of water, 10 or more gulps together....might work, might not...

Welp, hiccups are from a muscle that is contracting in your stomach(it's a valve), drinking water is ok, but taking a BIG breath of air(breath in until you can't anymore) then slowly(one m-i-s-s-i-s-i-p-p-i) count backwards from 10. Works for me.


BTW-I just sounded pretty bright then didn't I !!!!!

It's actually a scientifically proven fact that if you rub your right earlobe...that they'll stop! Seriously!

If they ever get really bad, light a few matches, put them out in a glass with a few ounces of water, then sip the water... the sulfur really takes care of the hiccups. If it's a recurring problem taking MSM (sulfur derivative found in health food stores and maybe drug stores with a good vitamin aisle) might help

No, Dave, it's true. I read it in a health magazine once while taking a dump...LOL...(gotta have those mags handy while on the hole)...

but anyway, yes, it's true. They say that some kind of chemical reaction in the right earlobe causes this and that to happen...blah blah blah...too scientific for me...but you get the point. And, everytime I have the hiccups...it always works.

KOBEcollector

thats funny man..i'll have to try that next time i get them

by the way, i know what you mean about having to read those mags ..shoot, i've been known to grab the shampoo bottle and read that if theres no mag available
