What would make you punch somebody in the face?

I’m a pretty laid-back person, meaning it takes a lot to get me mad. But I can think of a few things that would make me punch someone in the face.

I would punch my boyfriend in the face if he cheated on me. I would also kick him in the balls and spit on him.

I would punch anyone, and I mean ANYONE, if I saw them abusing an innocent person or animal.

I would punch anyone if they came after a friend of a member of my family that I care a lot about.

I would punch someone if they came after me with harmful intentions. I might not look big, but believe me, I can hit extremely hard if the need arises.

The real life story of a doper who punched his neighbor in the face.

I’d punch someone in the face for all of the above. I have ounched a guy in the face for whispering in my ear at a club. I punched another guy in the face because he wouldn’t share his weed and was being a cocky prick…I am a bit violent, it pays to be at times,

In sixth grade, on the bus home from school: the neighbor from hell threatening to kill my dog.

In eighth grade, in the middle of history class: a fellow student making very repeated (had been going on for about four months) and very, very unkind comments about my religion, my sexuality, and other very unpleasant topics.

I like to think, currently, that it would take someone causing physical harm to someone I love before I’d hit them in the face.

Hey, thanks for the link! I read the first page or so way back when but never got around to learning the conclusion.

If someone was in the process of stealing my camera right out of my hands the punch would not be in anger, but to simply say “you’re not having this camera mate”

If I witnessed someone male, adult, physically harming a woman or child.

I don’t think I have ever punched anyone in the face. I have kicked people, and I did swing and miss once (which inspired the comment from a fellow student - “If that had connected he’d be out!”

I would suggest you consult a doctor, your health plan’s lawyers, and several qualified professionals in the violence field before acting on this one.

Then hire the violence guys to do it for you. It’s bound to be more fun to watch than to do.

Attack someone I love and you’ll be lucky if all I do is punch you in the face.
I’m a redheaded, hockey playing wrestling fan. Take your chances. :smiley:

Bad control. Because a punch in the face is a full point deduction under the current AAU TKD rules.

But outside the ring – gross incompetence usually gets my blood boiling.

No punching in the face at all - you break your hands.

Palms, elbows, knees, feet - fine. Unprotected hands on hard skull - not fine.

Hard target, soft weapon. Soft target, hard weapon.

Ummm…Shodan, if punching someone in the face breaks your hand, you’re not making a proper fist. I’ve put mine through drywall, I’ve dented steel school locker doors (combination wouldn’t work and I was late for class…and a teenager at the time), I’ve broken boards, and I’ve never so much as bruised a knuckle.

eeewwww…anger issues :slight_smile:

Now that I think about it, it is. At the time, it was a spontaneous thing… I didn’t even know I was going to do it.

I am an extreme sissy, but if I was with Potter and someone threatened him, there would be blood on the ground.

matt, “extreme sissy” has got to be the overlooked marketing term of the century. I see a line of sports drinks with gimmicky names like Chamomile Cannon&reg

Travis McGee said it:

25 years ago I took my driver’s test with my hand in a cast. My brother-in-law had a hard face…

I doubt that I could actually punch someone in the face. My first thought was if someone were threatening my son, or any child. But I probably wouldn’t punch the person. Grab something heavy and whack 'em with it, yeah.

But I wouldn’t fault anyone for punching anyone over the reasons given - except maybe the klondike bar.
