I’ve tried many things before, but in the past couple days I’ve found that eating a packet or two of mustard tends to get rid of hiccups.
What sort of tricks do you folks have?

I actually learned this from an oncology nurse whose patients sometimes get chronic hiccups from certain chemo; the thing to do is have someone pull down on your earlobes while slightly cupping your ears forward, and then you drink water slowly while they hold your earlobes. Works every time. I taught this to a friend who had trouble with hiccups after surgery and she says it saved her life.

It ain’t all that serious yo, I ain’t about to die. Hiccups are a thing we can all relate to occasionally, just figured I’d ask what random tricks people have found useful.
For me, half the time a teaspoon of sugar does the trick, other times a glob of mustard does the trick. If my hiccups were chronic enough, of course I’d seek medical attention.
Well aren’t you a pleasant little dumpling of a person.
