The husband has been experiencing hiccups for a while now and has tried holding his breath and drinking water upside down but nothing seems to work. The wife offers to try something sweet like a spoonful of sugar and the husband thanks her for finally getting rid of them.

*hiccup*
gpt
Are you okay? You've been hiccupping for a while now.
human
Yeah, I don't know what's going on. I've tried holding my breath and drinking water upside down, but nothing seems to work.
gpt
Have you tried eating something sweet like a spoonful of sugar?
human
No, but I'll give it a try. *eats a spoonful of sugar* Ah, that did the trick. The hiccups are finally gone.
gpt
I'm glad that worked. Hiccups can be so annoying.
human
Yeah, they really can be. I remember when you had hiccups for hours that one time.
gpt
Oh my goodness, yes. I finally had to go to the doctor to get some medicine to calm them down. It was awful.
human
I'm just thankful that mine didn't last that long. Hopefully they won't come back anytime soon.
gpt
Me too. But if they do, now we know the trick to get rid of them.
