Marigold: There is hic a legendary hiccup cure we could hic try. You must feed me exotic hay from a far-away kingdom, on a bed of shredded, dew-kissed wild carrots. Phoebe: THAT will cure your hiccups? Marigold: Without question. Phoebe: ...but you've stopped hiccuping now. Marigold: According to the legend, hiccups will go away the moment you find a way to make them useful.
The best hiccup cure I ever saw came from my dad. We were at Wendy’s and my sister started hiccuping. My dad said “one second, I can cure this”, picked up a plastic spoon, and hit her in the face with it. It startled the hiccups right out of her.
