Hush

Today, I got a horrible case of the hiccups while at my friend's mother's funeral, resulting in me squeaking loudly every five seconds during the eulogy. My friend glared daggers at me until I left the room, then later accused me of being an insensitive bitch for "trying to ruin the funeral." FML

Did you try holding your breath to stop the hiccups? Works for me. But yeah its not like they're voluntary. That sucks.

It sucks that you had the hiccups but you should have quietly excused yourself and left

I had my phone go off during the eulogy and couldn't get it out of my jacket to save my life. I feel your pain.

I would do the same thing as your friend. I know hiccups are involuntary, but it might have seemed insensitive at such a hard an emotional time. I say suck it up.

I hate getting the hiccups and there's not really a good way to get rid of them, but you could have gone somewhere else after the hiccups started...

Sometimes holding your breath may not always work. 'm sorry for your friend's loss, and it sucks because once you get the hiccups. They're hard to get rid of.

Well you can take the high road or low road, they both have their perks. High road - forgive her and be as comforting as possible as she's clearly angry about her mother's death and is looking for an outlet for that anger Low road - "your mum must've been smiling in her coffin to get away from your ******* bitchy, immature ass!!"

Your friend probably didn't mean to get mad at you. She/he just lost their mother and was just really upset and under alot of stress. I just lost my grandma in february and it really sucks to lose someone important in your life. You didn't deserve it but I'm sure you understand why your friend did that and you probably made up and everything. But good for you for being there for your friend. Just next time excuse yourself and get a drink of water.

You were rude for not leaving the room the moment you realized your hiccups were loud, it is a funeral, do you know etiquette at all? And to suggest that your friend was wrong to say or feel as she did, really? Maybe she overreacted, but considering the emotional stress she is under, she is pretty much allowed to say and feel as she wants. Get over yourself! Learn some manners.
