Monty by Jim Meddick for May 16, 2023

He’s emptying his hic cup.

If Monty is drinking lite beer, then technically it is a glass of water.

I believe Monty has a drinking problem, but only in that he appears to be drinking from the wrong side of the glass.

I drink, I fall down, no problem.

I thought I was gonna drown one time when I hiccupped while I had my head thrown back gargling water (I had just brushed my teeth) it felt like when water or something accidentally goes down the wrong pipe except 10X worse!

But I’d read about secondary drowning, which is people drowning hours after inhaling water swimming and they think they’re fine but there’s too much water in their lungs. I must’ve coughed and wheezed for at least 10-15 minutes straight and then I kept having to like clear my throat and could feel a little water come back up for hours. I thought it would be a rather silly way to die lol

Here in Germany that’s just getting warmed up.

If that did not work, you have to quickly follow it up with another. Lather, rinse, repeat.

There are pressure points on your forehead that can stop the hiccups.

Green bell peppers used to bring mine on. Sometimes they wouldn’t stop until I had taken about 3 Benadryls and passed out.

Best way to cure the hiccups? Go jogging, wearing just a bathrobe and slippers, 5 kilometers should do it.

It’s a chug-a-lug contest !

I’d bet that Moondog can slam ‘em down faster than that.

Chugging his beer could help when he has to belch.

Starve a fever, drown the hiccups…

He needs to go to AA.

Not funny. No comment.

That won’t work it is the diaphragm starts acting like it did back before humans were around.

In the old days in the dive bars, we used to light half a pack of matches, dunk that in a glass of water, and chug the glass of water. Worked every time. Probably something to do with the sulfur overload.

Now they have proof. Monty needs help!

Do what a guy needs to do, Monty (for his hiccups)! Don’t be fazed by Dehlia and Moonie’s leaping to false conclusions!
