What are some good ways to alleviate hiccups? (lemmy.world)

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?

Yeah, I'm probably ADHD, and not easily scared. Hell, I handle snakes and spiders and shit sometimes. Good luck scaring me..

Go for a run or cold shower. Get your heart rate up, similar effect.

You'll never own a home or save enough for retirement. The entire planet is under incredible stress and we're literally making it uninhabitable for ourselves. Your tax dollars often go towards killing innocent people in other countries. You may have left the oven on.

If that didn't do it, I'm out of ideas.

Trying that fear factor approach I see. Well thank you for the thought, but I'm not easily scared, and that trick doesn't seem to work for me anyways.
