    So my wife and I discovered this technique. If you are having hiccups that won't go away, all you need to do is have someone ask you "What color is an eggplant?" When you answer, the hiccups will be gone.

    Then it's already worked, Everton!

    timmoishere, your idea is much better than mine; decapitation. Though mine is guaranteed to work, yours just seems a bit... arbitrary.

    What if you don't know the colour of eggplants...? Or if you have never heard of them?

    It still works. The idea is to keep your mind off the hiccups, if only for a split second.

    That's what I usually do, but I would guess the eggplant trick is less likely to cause heart attacks in people who get hiccups a lot. :/

    *ROTFLMAO* This thread is hillarious! [face_laugh]
    BUT, it is the solution to one of teh most deadly... Umm... What are hiccups anyway? Oh well.
    My meothod is holding my breath. It works quite well if you do it long enough. Do it too long, and it will have the same results as decapitation. Or having you face glued shut with peanut butter... :D

    My grandmother always used to offer me money if I could do one more hiccup, I always got so excited about it that I stopped doing them. I never got any money for it. :(
