Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Please don't post about US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected].
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

It's all placebo. Whatever you truly believe will cure them cures them. Once you figure this out you can just sort of meditate them away.
I’ve got one that’s not placebo: Doing a whip it. One big ol’ hit of nitrous WILL CURE THEM.
Yeah, I'll bet most sedatives probably work.
Pro tip, if you are around someone with hiccups and you want to help them out, wait for their next hiccup, then immediately after offer them $10 (or anything you can provide as incentive) if they can hiccup one more time. Something about wanting it makes it stop.
Unfortunately, this probably won't work on you anymore once you've read this, so sorry about that. And it only works on the unknowing a few times before they become immune, but it's a neat trick that they will appreciate it when it works!
