Quickly dry swallow one teaspoon of sugar. Works literally every time.

I’ve found that a swift hard kick to the balls works to cure hiccups in most right-wing fuckwit dictators.

Worth a try, anyway.

@Mercenary_Garage That cover was nauseatingly repetitive but the video sucked me in.

I mean, hiccups? Really? Does everyone buy that?

No sympathy. He’s a monster. He WON’T allow vaccinations, instead insisting on quackery. I suspect that he wants the Brazilian people to die, to “Reduce the surplus population.”. I once had hiccups after oral surgery, a side effect of the anesthesia, that lasted around eight hours, and it was torturous. I hope he has them for months.

In a tweet, Mr Bolsonaro said he would be “back soon, God willing”.

Um, No ahole, stay in the hospital and let the adults run your country.

Maybe some of these will work?

Hiccups are more a symptom, it’s likely some sort of intestinal blockage. May need surgery. Kind of appropriate for a truly full of shit individual, but he deserves far worse.

I’m saying how does anyone know it’s really hiccups. I think it’s far more likely he’s got covid and they’re covering it up with this hiccups excuse. But I generally expect lying liars to keep lying about everything, that’s a flaw of mine, so maybe I’m wrong.

Could be, though he’s had it before, and it may be complications from that infection.

I think if he was going to lie about a disease, he’d make up something less ridiculous sounding than hiccups, though I know chronic hiccups are quite uncomfortable.

so it could be that.
But really, considering the person, dunno duncare.
