== Anime and Manga ==
* In at least the English dub of ''[[Azumanga Daioh (Manga)|Azumanga Daioh]]'', Yukari is known to let out a "hic" when she's been drinking. (It may just be to pad out the syllables to match the amount of time that the mouth moves.)
* [[Ah! My Goddess (Manga)|Belldandy]] lets out a few of these after she gets drunk... ''[[Intoxication Ensues|on cola]]''.
* In ''[[Urusei Yatsura]]'' Lum has some after getting drunk off of pickled plums
* When Kaoru gets drunk in [[Rurouni Kenshin]]
* [[Super Dimension Fortress Macross|Roy Fokker]] does this, at least in [[The Movie]].
* [[Naruto (Manga)|Rock Lee]] also does this when he ends up taking in alcoholic stuff.
* In [[Psyren]], Matsuri, after driving over drunk to get Sakurako treatment after she makes it back to her world, has one when she says "It's your powers coming online [[Say It Withwith Hearts|(hic)]]"
 
 
Line 25:
* ''[[Elf Quest]]'': [http://www.elfquest.com/gallery/OnlineComics/OQ/OQ05/DisplayOQ05.html?page=32 Pike after eating dreamberries]. Not actually alcoholic, admittedly, and with fewer unpleasant side effects. Though, this ''does'' raise the obvious allegations that dreamberries are a narcotic...
* Drunken people in the ''[[Asterix]]'' books hiccup a lot. This is sometimes played with, as in ''Asterix and the Laurel Wreath'', where an inebriated Roman goes not only ''hic'', but also ''haec'' and ''hoc'' (all actual Latin words, all meaning "this").
* [[Tintin (Comic Book)|Captain Haddock]], and Snowy in the earlier stories, often hiccups when drunk.
* In the ''[[Popeye]]'' comic strips, a single hiccup is enough to prove to the press that King Blozo is a drinker, despite his insistence that he isn't. It turns out to be the pea soup his cook gives him.
* The ''[[Mary Worth (Comic Strip)|Mary Worth]]'' comic strip is a champion of temperance, making nearly every character who is weak or bad a conspicuous, hiccuping drinker - often endearing them to many readers (see: Helen Clark in [[The Comics Curmudgeon]]).
* This once happened with [[Batman|The Riddler]] in ''[[The Long Halloween]]''
 
 
== Films -- Animation ==
* [[Dumbo (Disney)|Dumbo]] the elephant. Partly justified in that he's drunk off champagne (though it would really make him belch more than hiccough).
** Well, to be fair, Dumbo already had the hiccups before he got drunk. They just got worse afterward. Played straight with Timothy.
* Also Hiss in Disney's ''Robin Hood'' after being trapped in a barrel of ale.
* Robespierre in ''Gay Purr-ee''.
* Gideon from ''[[Pinocchio (Disney film)|Pinocchio]]'', it is noted that this is his only "dialogue" in the film.
* Uncle Waldo from ''[[The Aristocats]]''.
* The drunk Scotsman from ''[[The Illusionist (Animationanimation)|The Illusionist]]''.
* Honest John in ''[[An American Tail]]''.
 
 
== Films -- Live-Action ==
* Happens in the original ''[[Miracle Onon 34th Street]]''.
* Happens to Scarlett O'Hara in "[[Gone Withwith the Wind]]".
* Mike's hiccup in ''[[The Philadelphia Story]]'' (which was followed by a comedic blooper which stayed in the final film)
** They even included it in the musical remake, ''High Society''.
Line 61:
 
== Literature ==
* [[Older Than Feudalism]]. Plato's ''[[Symposium (Literature)|Symposium]]'' is set during a house party. When Aristophanes shows to make his speech up [http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus:text:1999.01.0174:text=Sym.:section=185c&highlight=hiccough he has hiccups] which Socrates blames on [http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/surfeit surfeit], excessive drinking.
* Several characters in ''[[Harry Potter (Literaturenovel)|Harry Potter]]'' including Sir Cadogan, Winky, Horace Slughorn, and Hagrid.
 
 
Line 75:
* An early episode of [[Myth Busters]] tested several tricks that are supposed to defeat a Breathalyzer. (They all failed.) At the end of the episode, loopy-drunk Adam is giving the wrapup and [[Never Gets Drunk|Jamie]] throws in a fake hiccup.
* Happened to Otis at least once in [[The Andy Griffith Show]].
* A combination of this and [[Hiccup Hijinks]] happened to Jack Tripper in an early episode of [[ThreesThree's Company]]. It should be noted, while Jack wasn't actually drunk, he did have enough beer to give himself the hiccups, potentially blowing his cover by revealing himself to Chrissy's mother, whom he was hiding from.
 
 
Line 84:
 
== Videogames ==
* In ''[[Bio ShockBioshock]]'', picking up two or more alcoholic beverages in quick succession will cause the screen to blur and sway, along with a very audible hiccuping noise.
* The player characters in ''[[Tibia]]'' will hiccup when drunk. In text, as the game doesn't have sounds.
* If your character is drunk in ''[[Kingdom of Loathing]]'', a -hic- will sometimes appear at the end of your lines in chat.
Line 91:
** This is particularly humorous when, after a long day of questing, you buy one of those fancy keg things from Dalaran and muck about in Ogrimmar. Eventually, a tale off somebody having aggroed some wandering elite, or a patrol, and somebody will proudly proclaim that he/she "shaved your assh back there... hic!".
* [[Ultima Online]] had this as the only side effect of drinking. There are no combat penalties for fighting even after drinking all the alcohol your inventory can hold.
* The Drunken Dwarf in ''[[Runescape (Video Game)|Runescape]]''.
* Elmo, ''[[Temple of Elemental Evil]]'''s perpetually drunk arms at man... err, man at arms, does all of these, plus if recruited by a female PC, "Prudy lady" is part of some of his combat quotes.
** Troika's [[Arcanum]] also features it on Sogg Meadmug.
* Subverted in [[Toejam and Earl]], where the title characters will start to burp obnoxiously after consuming a Root Beer.
* Rise Kujikawa in ''[[Persona 4 (Video Game)|Persona 4]]'' has a drunk hic on the class trip, at the club, right before the merry friends play the King's Game. Of course, {{spoiler|it turns out that she really wasn't drunk. She just thought she was.}}
* The drunk driver in ''[[Police Quest]]''.
* In the Apple II-era game ''[http://www.zzap64.co.uk/cgi-bin/displayreview.pl?reviewid=40 Infiltrator II]'', you can find a bottle of vodka in an enemy base, and if you so chooses you can drink it and hic to your heart's content.
* ''[[King's Quest VI Heir Today Gone Tomorrow]]''. For genies peppermint acts like alcohol does for humans. Give Shamir Shamazel a peppermint and he suffers from hiccups, slurred speech, and disorientation.
* It's rare to find a scene where ''[[Blaze Union]]'''s Sleip isn't hiccuping (or belching or suppressing the urge to vomit), but then she does spend most of the game completely plastered.
* In [[Fire Emblem Tellius (Video Game)|Fire Emblem:Path of Radiance]], chapter {{spoiler|23}}. Those who have seen the rest of the following conversation know that this guy was clearly drunk.
** {{spoiler|Shinon}}: Good for you, huh? Har har! ...Hic! You're in love with a pwetty wittle princess, you're fighting side-by-side with yer sub-human pals. Yes! Yer moving up! Oooo, look at you! It's big mister Ike! Leading the good life!
* In ''[[Alice: Madness Returns]]'', Alice hiccups every couple of seconds when she's {{spoiler|sh}}runk.
* [[Conkers Bad Fur Day (Video Game)|Conkers Bad Fur Day]], obviously when drunk, hiccups whenever you try to jump.
* Happens in the ''[[Dragon Quest (Video Game)|Dragon Quest]]'' series (especially in the remakes) when you talk to guys who are drunk in pubs. There is also one time in ''IV'' when you talk to a drunken guy outside the bar in Endor at night, and he feels like he's not "[[Spoonerism|wurring my slurds or anything]]".
 
 
Line 110:
* By the end of The Hardy Show episode "Win The Shot, Call The Spot", basically Truth or Dare without the Truth and with booze, [[Professional Wrestling|Jeff and Matt Hardy]] are completely wasted on vodka, and Jeff actually does spend the credits having an uncontrollable bout of the hiccups.
* [http://www.vbs.tv/watch/drunk-history/ona-judge This episode] of Drunk History on VBS.tv. Hilariously.
* At the end of the Breakfast of Booze episode of [[EPICMEALTIME (Web Video)|EPICMEALTIME]]: "Next time, we eat a cult. ... *hic!*"
* Occurs about five minutes in to [[The Nostalgia Critic (Web Video)|The Nostalgia Critic]]'s [[Drinking Game]] review of ''[[IT]]''. He only gets more hammered from there.
 
 
== Webcomics ==
* ''[[The Whiteboard (Webcomic)|The Whiteboard]]'':
** Jinx, in [http://www.the-whiteboard.com/autowb250.html this] New Years Eve strip.
** In [http://www.the-whiteboard.com/autotwb1127.html this] later strip, a no-neck who's had a few too many has his comment peppered with hics.
Line 133:
** Played straight however with Marge, Bart, an [[Makes Sense in Context|animatronic Ben Franklin]], and Homer at least once.
* In ''[[The Great Mouse Detective]]'', the poor rat who let slip "Rat" was hiccupping throughout his speech and song as well.
* The Casseticon Rumble did this in the original ''[[The Transformers (Animationanimation)|The Transformers]]'' cartoon where the Decepticons get "over-energized" on [[G-Rated Drug|Energon cubes]]. Made even funnier when you consider Transformers don't even need to breathe.
* In the episode of ''[[Duck TalesDuckTales]]'' "Too Much of a Gold Thing", Scrooge McDuck gets one of these, however, he isn't inebriated, unless you call Gold Fever, as Beakly calls it, inebriation. Supposedly, Gold Fever is what happens when someone becomes so greedy, they forget what is important, this is eventually played true when Scrooge risks his, his Nephews, Beakly, and her Granddaughter's lives, just for a giant disk of gold, only to find a building made of the stuff. This is when he starts hiccuping, and, if I recall correctly, it lasts the rest of the episode.
** Hewey, Dewey, and Louie get infected as well.
