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?

This will sound like a joke, but is 100% true.

The most effective, clinically proven, method to cure hiccups is anal digital stimulation. Finger your butthole. You don't have to go deep, unless you want to, just tease the opening though. You can have someone tongue punch your fart box as well because the method of stimulation doesn't matter and I am sure the research ran out of funding before testing alternative methods of stimulation.

Edit: Might as well include a NIH article on the matter.

I think I'll just squirt some mustard up my ass, but thank you for the advice ๐Ÿ‘

You're doing twice the work, but I ain't here to kink shame.

LOL, you should know I was being sarcastic there!

But for real, add that one to your potential hiccup remedies, eat a small glob of mustard, if nothing else works anyways.
