If you had a chance. Simply because they annoy you. I was watching “The Harvey Girls” on TCM this morning, and I saw 20 year old Angela Lansbury in an emerald green gown in a railroad cowtown getting on the train, with that curly lipped sneer, and I said to Mr. S. - “I would like to punch her.” He allowed as to how he saw the virtue of that and said he, himself would like to punch out Angelina Jolie for her fat lips, and Brad Pitt for his smug look. Yes, we are kind, mature adults, but even my mom admitted she would like to punch Mary Tyler Moore for her hideous plastic surgery. So who would you like to punch out?

I’m non-violent. I don’t want to punch anyone out.  
This may change suddenly, without warning.

I could sit on Dick Cheney’s chest and punch and punch until my arms felt like lead.

La Princesa, my work nemesis. Except I’m afraid punching her would hurt my hand, so can I use a bag of oranges, or is bitch-slapping an option?

In no particular order:

[ul]  
[li]My boss… what an idiot he is.[/li][li]One particular coworker… a power hungry megalomaniac.[/li][li]George W. Bush… 'Nuff said.[/li][li]Hillary Clinton… Multiple reasons that are far too numerous to list here.[/li][li]That one kid from Jr. High School who tormented me so… He was absolutely cruel to me and I will NEVER forgive him… PERIOD. I don’t care if it was over 20 yrs ago. I would punch him out in a second if I had the chance.[/li][/ul]

Ok… that last one kind of got away from me… but I’m OK now. 🙂

I would gladly punch out Al Gore.

Not only is he a fake and a poseur; he attempts to influence impressionable children.

I would punch him twice if I could.

I would dearly love to punch out the rotton F%#@er that dismantled my transmission, took a large deposit then went out of business.

This might put me on everybody’s “punch out” list but shouldn’t the title of this thread be “_ **Whom** _ Do You Want To Punch Out?”
