Say Cucumber

CrazyKell · 11-05-2009, 02:15 PM

Don't ask me how this works. It's like some strange voodoo magic.

I'm at work and I got the hiccups. A girl at a desk near mine says "Say cucumber." I said it and voila! no more hiccups!

Yep. Voodoo. It's gotta be.

My husband claims that hiccups are 100% voluntary because he never gets them. I am trying to find a way to prove him wrong. I have tried thus far in vain.

Carrots give me hiccups every time I eat them so I doubt the are "Voluntary".

I used to be able to get rid of my wifes hiccups by saying...
"You're Pregnant"

That was before we had kids

Yeah, I get them all the time for all sorts of reasons. But he NEVER gets them. EVER. I need to call his mom and ask him if he got em as a baby. Maybe he's like Bruce Willis in Unbreakable or something.

Weird. I know people who never get them either and then some people get them all the time.

I also know a woman who cannot burp. Just simply cannot and does not burp.

I, on the other hand, burp constantly. It's ridiculous. I mean, it's a joke with all my friends because I can't really help it but.....seriously I sound like a trucker!

The only thing that works for me is to drink out of the opposite side of a glass
