QUOTE(salamangkero @ Sep 12 2007, 03:41 AM) I usually have hiccups when I drink soda, which is why I'd so much love to see fizz-less sodas come out in the market. Here are directions on making fizzless soda (lol): Option 1: 1. Buy a 2 liter of your favorite soda. 2. Shake the heck out of it. 3. Release the cap slowly so a little air escapes, little by little 4. Rinse and repeat until the soda doesn't foam up anymore Option 2: 1. Put your soda in the fridge with the cap off for about a week. fyi: Soda is made with carbonated water which is what makes it fizz. If it was made with regular water it wouldn't be soda. But if you like flat soda, by all means follow the directions above!

A few times a week I get the hiccups and it can get pretty annoying... but i never really had them long enough to bother trying with the different methods to get rid of them. I usually tried to hold my breath to make them go away, but that didn't really seem to do much, then I would get distracted with something else, and stop trying to make them stop, but then they would go away on their own. I'm guessing because I wasn't thinking about it by then. Now I kind of want to get the hiccups though, as weird as that may sound, because I want to try the different methods to use to make them go away. Maybe I should go and drink a whole bunch and cross my fingers

after reading all the replies I see most have done the glass of water thing.

True it works, even the soda. The one cure I always will do is 1 Tables spoon of white suger. works 100% of the time.
why it works I have no idea.

A spoon of raspberry jam works great, and so does standing on one leg and holding your breath. (I do not think the one leg thing does matter, but it is kind of funny.) Hiccups are annoying, especially if I am in front of people that I do not know or something like that. I often get hiccups when I am laughing, so it turns into a combination. Weird.
