What's your favorite remedy for hiccups?

Just curious. No, really.

The only thing that works on my own hiccups is sustained and repeated swallowing of liquid - IE a nice, big glass of water which I would preferably chug right down without taking a breath. Fewer than ten gulps doesn't always do it and then I have to drink another ridiculous amount of water.

It is particularly fun, and by fun I mean "augh" when this happens right before I should be going to sleep.

Ditto. Water fountains (aka "bubblers") work quite well for this (perhaps because it's coupled with leaning your head over?)

Hm. I've never tried a water fountain for this, but I totally will, now.
