I think the url name says it all
Mostly, I would agree with you, Faldage, but we can't always judge a book by its cover. "mindlesscrap" actually contains some useful information.

For instance, Consuelo just launched a discussion about "hiccups/hiccoughs" in another thread. This is what "mindlesscrap" has to say about that.

Hiccups are contractions of the diaphragm. When you hiccup, your diaphragm and nearby muscles convulse, causing you to briefly gulp air. Within 35 milliseconds the glottis (the opening at the top of the air passage) slams shut, producing the characteristic "hic." The amazing thing is that, as far as the medical community is concerned, the purpose of a hiccup is unknown. Thanks to Cecil Adams for the help.

Hmmm. Is the purpose of a hiccup/hiccough really unknown?
