To stop hiccups,
eat a little bit of peanut butter. It doesn't matter what kind it is (creamy or crunchy); just take a small spoonful, put it in your mouth, and swallow it. Within 30 seconds, your hiccups should be gone.
(This is 100% fact--even saw it in a teacher's handbook under "Important Things to Have in the Classroom"!)
DISCLAIMER: It is not my fault if you are allergic to peanuts and go into anaphylactic shock and die if you have hiccups and you try this, kthx.
