Having the hiccups suck. Let’s just be honest. Then I quit to kill you, they’re just going to annoy the hell out of you for a while.
How do you get rid of them? That is always the question. You could hold your nose, hold your breath, have a friend scare you, etc.
As you might have expected, someone has come up with a cure for the common hiccup. It isn’t necessarily a cure, but a tool that makes it go away. It’s an eldest shaped straw with a valve on it that allows air in or out until the hiccup goes away. It is called “hiccaway”.

It supposedly works in 93% of its cases. Keep in mind though, letting a hiccup just write itself out means that hiccups go away 100% of the time for everyone. So yes, we have created a tool to fix something that goes away naturally. Humanity is safe yet again
