Question of the Day - Sunday, March 9th, 2025

Today's question is from @Gill-b:

What is your method of ridding yourself of the hiccups?

Edited to add... if you don't have antacid available.

I breathe in deep, hold it, breathe in more, hold. Repeat until my lungs are full and hold for as long as possible.

 

[notabitail]

Slowly drink water.

 

[Cheekychook12]

Waiting it out, but drinking water also

 

[azurbanclucker]

Oban 14. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Honestly indifferent to the results!

 

[sourland]

Drink a glass of water from the top of the glass.

 

[Evadig]

Try to take a drink of water at the exact moment of the hiccup; otherwise, @casportpony's method

 

[BigBlueHen53]

Drink a glass of water from the top of the glass.

Did not know it was possible to drink from the bottom of a glass, Sour. Oh wait. Could do so, with a straw, I guess.

 

[BigBlueHen53]

Breathe into a paper bag or baggie.

 

[muddy75]

Hold my breath

 

[tripletfeb]

Hold your breath for 15 seconds then let it out for 5
