Once, the baby (6 mo. old) I was nannying for had hiccups. It was so hilarious. He didn't mind them at all. He just went on playing with his mobile toy and would convulse every few seconds.

For some reason I get hiccups during tests at school. Like today during Biology I couldn't stop. And then everyone started laughing and the teacher just stared me down.

When I was a kid I got them all the time. For a whie there, I'd mainly get them when I was mean to a sibling and then laughed on him. One of my friends calls that Instant Karma.

One time my friend and her now husband were driving to her parents' house when he got the hiccups. It went on for a while, so my friend (who was driving) decided to try something drastic. She lets out a blood-curdling scream, hoping to cure them via the "scare the carp out of him" method. He jumps in pure terror, plastering himself against the passenger side window. He later said, "I thought something was trying to eat your leg."

He still had hiccups afterwards.
