I know it sounds nuts, but that hiccup trick works for me; where you get a tall cup of water, sit it on the table, and drink from the opposite side of the glass. It may have something to do with the way your air passages are as you drink\n\n\nAlso for hiccups, try a spoonful of peanut butter\n\n\nThe only real hiccup cure is one that treats the hiccups for what they really are. Hiccups are caused by the diaphragm spasming. Taking in as much air as possible, makes the lungs expand and push down on the diaphragm. This stretches the diaphragm out to it original position and shape. Hold the breath as long as possible, just don't pass out, and let it out. Voila', no more hiccups. It works every time. \n\nIf all of the above dont work.. just watch a horror movie or let something scare U.

ACTUALLLY, HICCUPS ARE CAUSED BY A SPASM OF YOUR DIAPHRAM. I HAVE NOTICED BEFORE THAT AFTER I DRINK A COKE THAT HICCUPS MAY START BECAUSE OF THE CARBONATION IN THE COKE, SO IT MAY BE A COINCEDENCE.

Change your breathing patterns. Hiccups are basically hitches in your current breathing pattern. Try breathing in and out really fast for a minute or two.

Hiccups can be central or peripheral. Central hiccups (like those caused in chronic renal failure, or damage to brainstem) can be intractable and persistent.

Hiccups are caused by the diaphragm spasming.  Try holding your breath or forcing air down to help stop the spasm

"Hic!" You've just hiccuped for what seems like the tenth time since you finished your big dinner. Wonder where these funny noises are coming from? The part to blame is your diaphragm (say: die-uh-fram). This is a dome-shaped muscle at the bottom of your chest, and all hiccups start here.\n\nThe diaphragm almost always works perfectly. It pulls down when you inhale to help pull air into the lungs, and it pushes up when you exhale to help push air out of the lungs. But sometimes the diaphragm becomes irritated, and when this happens, it pushes up in a jerky way that makes your breath come out differently from how it normally does. When this irregular breath hits your voice box, you're left with a big hiccup.\n\nSome things that irritate the diaphragm are eating too quickly or too much, an irritation in the stomach or the throat, or feeling nervous or excited. Almost all cases of the hiccups last only a few minutes. Some cases of the hiccups can last for days or weeks, but this is very unusual, and it's usually a sign of another medical problem.\n\nYou've probably heard lots of suggestions for how to get rid of hiccups, and maybe you've even tried a few. Holding your breath and counting to 10 is one way some people can get rid of their hiccups; other people say that drinking from the "wrong" side of a glass of water is the way to become hiccup-free. Putting sugar under your tongue might work, too. And maybe the most famous treatment - having someone jump out and scare you when you're not expecting it - helps some people wave good-bye to their hiccups.

For me, I day-dream on purpose.  When you day-dream you forget about the hiccups, and breathe normal, thus, getting rid of the hiccups.  For anyone who reads this, you really should try this; IT WORKS!

Drop the phone book on her head when she's not looking. \n\n\nI've also heard that you can cure hiccups by tickling. So tickle her until she slaps you, then slap her back twice as hard.

Breathing CO2(carbondioxide) eases hiccups. Breathing in a closed environment (like a paper bag) increase CO2 intake, thereby helping ease hiccups. Holding breath does the same.
