Never admit to having hiccups around this guy!

Do any of those cures actually work?

Well..getting shot in the head does stop the hiccups...unfortunatly it stops everything else as well.
 
I feel bad for the nephew, but not for the uncle. Anybody stupid enough to point a loaded revolver at someone in an attempt to scare away hiccups deserves death.
 
Hmm yes...true. I was talking about all the others, like holding your breath, drinking water, etc..

I know a Dutch rhyme that works every time.
As always, Dutch pwn everyone at everything.

On-topic: D:
 
My god. How insane.

'Course, I can't talk because I accidentally shot my friend in the kneecaps with an airsoft shotgun. But yeah.
 
Man that's sad. He obviously didn't mean to kill him. Man I bet he felt so bad during those last few moments of his life. Still, a great example of why NOT to play with guns.
 
The fact that people are laughing at this disturbs me imensly.
 
to avoid any further instances, spread the word: swallow a spoonful of sugar. always gets rid of the hiccups, always, almost immdiately. it's so awesome.
 
They're not cures if they don't work, are they?

Putting that aside, the only cure I've ever known to be effective is to suffocate the diaphragm: take a glass of some liquid and gulp it down, at least ten big gulps, without breathing.

A shot in the face, while technically a cure for hiccups, is considered overkill.

Yes, the guy was terribly unfortunate. That doesn't mean his misfortune wasn't humourous.

If I get shot by my uncle due to hiccups you can laugh.

I mean not if like my parents were right in front of you or something, but if you snicker I will not haunt you. It happens. :P

I didn't really find this funny. But when people find things funny they can't help it, it just is to them :P
 
Reminds me of a story.

I was in my friend's room with my other friend. He had what looked like a toy gun in his room. Like an old fashioned western pump gun. He picked it up, cocked it, aimed it at my face about an inch away from my eye. Then we both said "i gotta funny feeling", he pulled the gun up, shot it at the roof and a bb flies out and lodges itself in the ceiling. Started laughing my head off.

Why does somebody have to say this every time a story like this gets posted?
