Let's say you saved the world from blowing up, and were thus granted the freedom to slap ONE person
Edited on Sat Sep-26-09 01:00 PM by Bicoastal
directly in the face, as hard as you wanted, without fear of consequences. Male, female, old, young, rich, poor, famous, unknown--the choice is yours. (After all, you saved the world from blowing up.)

Who would you wallop? Me, I'd sock it to Karl Rove--I can't think of anyone more deserving.

2. Do you HAVE to punch them?
I can't hit very hard.

Can I just pants him, blindfold him, and shove him out of the car in a public place?

28. Only if the car is driving really fast
Otherwise you need to get a pinch hitter or use brass knuckles.

36. Physical wounds heal. I would want to inflict
maximum damage, and that means popping their mental beads.

Terminal embarrassment is the way to go.

37. I can't imagine anything much more embarrassing than
Getting dumped out of a fast moving car, naked, blindfolded, and on a busy intersection.

39. You don't want to raise the compassion level
of passersby, who would rush to his aid. A very public place, and an embarrassing place.

Like the church parking lot, just when services are letting out. You could also juice things up with a quadruple dose of Ex-lax, but the timing would be critical, you don't want a mess in your car.

Or downtown, during rush hour. Or in front of a rowdy biker bar (that I'd like to see!)

5. I don't want to punch anyone
I don't want to feel that kind of intense rage that would be necessary for me to punch someone with any force.

6. Hmm...Oddly, I can't think of anyone I'd really want to punch. Put on trial, yes, oh definitely.
Hrm. Yeah, most of the evil people in the world you'd just make madder by punching them and they'd take it out on the people they're already abusing. Of course, it's possible to actually kill a person with a single punch but, then again, pretty much all the evil people I can think of, even if they dropped dead (for whatever reason) would just be replaced by another evil person from the power structure of evil they surround themselves with.

Oh man. No astrologer could predict that fate.

14. Hey, if you can save the world...
... I'll take the punch.

But I think there are a lot of republicans who would rather see the world blow up, than get punched.

15. Oh, this is too violent - I can't stand to even imagine such a thing.
Edited on Sat Sep-26-09 01:06 PM by old mark
Well, maybe Rush, but I'd have to be able to hit him more than once.
Maybe Rove, but with the same caveat.
Cheney, too.
Glen Beck, but with a bat.
Pat Buchanan, also a bat.

There would be more, but I'm disgusted with all this violence.
Can't we just love everyone till the world gets better?
Oh, and Lindsay Graham, too....

16. Either Bush or Cheney
Probably Bush because Cheney seems like he is surrounded with some Satanic aura that would singe me if my hand crossed into it.

So it would be Bush, and I would say, "You stupid twit. You KNEW you were not smart enough to be president, so this slap is for betraying our country by taking the job you weren't capable of doing."

I can't decide which. There are many other repukes I'd like to slap, but those two are tops at the moment.
