Stick a finger in your bum.

It's true, the man won a prize for his discovery.

"Runaway electrical impulses in the vagus nerve cause intractable hiccups, so Fesmire attempted to block them by stimulating the nerve. Gagging, tongue pulling, sinus massage and pressing the eyeball to stimulate the vagus all failed to stop the hiccups. Then he remembered reading about a case in which digital rectal massage – inserting a finger into a patient’s anus – had slowed a racing heartbeat, an effect similar to runaway hiccups. It worked, and the rest is history,"

I hate to say it, but this looks like one of those fake news sites, like the one that said Joeseph Blanchette was killed

I always get rid of my hiccups by holding my breath for about a minute or longer. It works every time. It's different for everyone. I'm sure some people will find this method more pleasurable than others.

The real way to do it is:
Hold fore finger against top of nose.
Bring fore finger forward, then down and around onto the table. Make sure you always look at fore finger.

I'll stick with looking at a naked picture of Dr. Laura Schlessinger. Though an effective cure, if you look at it long enough, you'll be turned into a stone statue.

Here's one. Stand up. Bend your back forwards. So you look like a reversed/upside down L from the left. Grab a glass of water and drink it. Works everytime

Uhh ... I'd choose holding my breath for a minute anyday. It has always worked for me, so I don't see a reason to resort to your 'method'.

This is a sad day. This guy fucked himself one day while he had the hiccups and wins a nobel prize?

Not himself, he "fucked" his patient, becasue the man had hiccups for more than 3 days.

This is indeed intriguing, but I'd rather stick with a teaspoon of sugar if you don't mind.

Want to become instantly gay? Stick a finger in your ass. Whatever happened to hold your breath and drink something to get rid of hiccups.

Killing yourself works just as well

Well I got an easier way that works 100% of the time for me. Just hold your breath and drink a glass of water.

I'm not sticking no goddamn finger up my bum.

To be honest, I came into this thread thinking you were gonna post some scary image that would scare the shit out of us.

However, anal remedies are always a great substitute.
