Baby Blues by Rick Kirkman and Jerry Scott for August 02, 2022

You’re a mean one, Miss Grinch

Hiccup cure: Stand on one foot, slowly sip a glass of water while holding breath.Works every time!

How does one get hiccups on purpose?

Zoe may just be trying to clear some of her recent grievances while she can sort of get away with it.

Beware of the Vulcan Death Grip.

Do it Zoe, DO IT!!!

Scare him Zoe. That’ll cure his hiccups.

We used to call that “The Claw” !

I have a strange history with the hiccoughs. Around 10 years ago I suffered continuous, debilitating hiccoughs for three weeks, until it began to weaken me; turned out I had a case of walking pneumonia, where a small growth was pressing on a nerve that triggered the hics. Last Christmas I ate some stale corn chips and began to suffer food poisoning. After three days of hiccoughing and inability to keep food down, I went to the hospital and was diagnosed with the Wuhan Contagion.

One time in high school, we had a substitute who was pretty much a hard a$$. She insisted on a silent study period…and she meant SILENT. In the middle of class I got the hiccups. I tried to control them. At one point I thought I did…I relax…then, suddenly…HICCUP!!! It came out SO LOUD! The entire class erupted in laughter, the sub lost all control of the class. I believe that was the last time I ever saw her.

Just further proof Zoe is mean spirited. Hammie needs to dump some dragon gas for a protective barrier.

In later life Zoe changes her name to Alice, develops the fist of death and goes to work for the Pointy Haired Boss.

“But it will be next time!” ☺

She IS consistent…

Her bite is definitely worse than her threat. Tread lightly boy….

Is that the kid version of Alice’s “Fist of Death”?

gET OUT THE old Halloween Mask&scare him

Well, if scares really are a hiccup cure, that just might work!

Zoe!! That’s Hawthorne’s move -only he can do it best!

Drink warm water. I remember when I had my first one my body changed I had hickups all day, same with my 2nd one 3 years later.

Hiccuping is an involuntary reaction.

It’s been said that if you are startled it will cure the hic ups. Maybe Zoe is doing you a favor.

Is it believable that she’s never had hiccups?

Hiccups happen.

The way I get rid of my hiccups is I chug a glass of water and then let out a huge burp and they are gone.

Haha! XD
