I lied a little bit there - got your attention though, didn't I? Anal sex actually won an Ig Nobel - prizes given out to improbable research. Other winners studied why we hate fingernails on blackboards (Acoustics) and why mosquitoes love the smell of cheese (Biology). The winner in Medicine was a man who became the first person to terminate hiccups with digital rectal massage. In other words, if you massage someone's ass, their hiccups can go away. I've always gulped a glass of water while holding my nose but this solution sounds much better!Medicine loves to create tools to do what human hands could do (that's how vibrator's got their start, after all) so it's convenient that the perfect "rectal massage" tool already exists. It's called the Aneros. If you've ever got the hiccups, forget standing on your head or getting your friend to scare you; just grab an Aneros and enjoy some Prostate or G-spot stimulation and get rid of your hiccups at the same time!
