For the last 20 minutes I have been fighting a mighty battle

[redshifter]

But I SHALL NOT LET THE HICCUPS WIN!

*cue "Conan the Barbarian" music*

 

[Clutz]

I can help you with your battle

 

[Kirosia]

Hold your breathe until someone kicks you in the nuts

 

[redshifter]

No I mean I'll get up and bend over to get something and I'll feel like if I breathe I'll start to hiccup then I'll let out a little hiccup and I'll just concentrate real hard until the urge to hiccup passes.

Feel free to use these commas in my post ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

 

[Clutz]

Kirosia, I was going to offer to kick him in the nuts! Great minds think alike! And I live reasonably close - only 3 hours up the road from redshifter.

red - start holding your breath now, I'll get in my car and drive down to Seattle and I'll meet you at the public market and hoof you one there.

lol on a serious note, what I do to get rid of hiccups is to drink some water, but I don't swallow it yet. I tilt my head up, and swallow, making sure to push some air down with the water. Then I burp, and force all the air out of my throat, making sure to get as much out as possible in one exhale.

Mm hm, works all the time! For me, at least.

From the title, I thought this was going to involve redshifter, a toilet, and possibly poop.

However, this thread delivers. redshifter ftw

 

[Kirosia]

Hey look, your lawn's on fire

Burping is essential. This resets the gag reflex.

i needed this laugh. thank you.

 

[intoflatlines]

I had hiccups for a couple hours once. It was bad.

Drink a whole can of coke in one sip, then follow it up by swallowing a whole pack of mentos. You will either burp 40 times, or explode. Either way you will not have hiccups. That or have Kirosia kick you in the nuts. Nothin but options.

Not Faygo?!

<-- BTW this avatar? The only time Snake Plissken smiled.

 

[Kirosia]

I'll kick him in the nuts, regardless.

Hold your breath as much as you can, that works for me all the time...Simple but effective...
