If you could punch one well known person in the face, who would it be?

I have a pretty long list but I'll just stick to my numero uno. Also, there are no consequences after hitting them.

Justin Bieber. Obama is a close second, but I HATE Justin Bieber. By far the biggest douche bag on the face of the planet. Kid thinks he's the greatest thing since sliced bread. It's only a matter of time before he goes into a stage 5 meltdown like Lohan or Bynes. (They use to be so hot).

Yea I'd for sure punch Justin Bieber in the face.

Nancy Pelosi and/or Diana DeGette - I'm opposed to violence against women, but I think I could make an exception with these two.luminaries.

Pelosi was a close second for me there. I just can't get over wanting to punch Bieber in his shit eating grin

Why waste a free punch on the Biebs?

I'd pick Diane Fienstein.

This is a good one.

My drinkin' problem left today, she packed up all her bags and walked away.
 

Piers Morgan + Paul Krugman. Maybe not Krugman as much, since he might turn out to be right 50 years down the road (who knows...). But definitely Piers Morgan.

 

Maxine Waters

"The HBS guys have MAD SWAGGER. They frequently wear their class jackets to boston bars, strutting and acting like they own the joint. They just ooze success, confidence, swagger, basically attributes of alpha males."
 

I feel like a nice backhand would be more enjoyable than a punch, personally. Still boggles my mind how MA elected two complete wingbats for senators.

Justin Bieber.

Anyone who hates Bieber that much is clearly mental ill. Why be jealous of a guy who looks like he is 12 years old and makes his money selling $hity music to girls who are too young for anyone here.

Bieber gets more poon and makes more than 99% of users here. I would definitely be as cocky as him, it's just what happens when you get both fame and fortune.

Let's see here:

-Constantly in the media and thus on my computer screen for his stupid shit -Makes millions off of his shitty music (which not only tweens buy) -Always acts like a douchebag that thinks he's the shit -Following the above, 12 year old girl in disguise -Makes more than anyone on this forum, and more than 99.9% of those on Wall Street who actually work

I can be annoyed by a little shitbag if I so chose.

Jealous is the last word that comes to mind when I think of that chode. I would knock him out because I think he is a stain on the underpants of society.

Dianne Feinstein, Nancy Pelosi, Pier Morgan, or that angry little boy Rachel Maddow. Whoever was available at the time. Wouldn't matter.

For me, it's between Eric Holder and Barack Obama. I abhor both of those people so much. Sometimes I'm almost cool and they don't bother me and other times I wish them cancer.

 

Everyone here seems to lack creativity.

I would punch Flo, the woman in the Progressive car insurance commercials.

"For I am a sinner in the hands of an angry God. Bloody Mary full of vodka, blessed are you among cocktails. Pray for me now and at the hour of my death, which I hope is soon. Amen."
 

Jeez, who knew that Wall Street spent so much time and effort fuming about Justin Bieber??

Don't care if he's a celebrity or not, it'd be this guy for sure. I'd Kanye West this guy's jaw.

Wow I just saw this entire video. Kid is a total dumbass.

"A panel consisting of the Black Student Union, Muslim Student Association and Student Government Association..." Do you not see the cognitive dissonance in that? It's ok for black people, muslim people and nerds to create their own organizations but not white people?

Really original.

Ok, kidding aside, I'm white and I'm not sure I'd want to join a group where the only thing everyone had in common was ......being white. Like, what's the point? I have no use for "white empowerment", we kind of already run things. Here, check this out:

I'm shocked no one has said ME.

When I saw you were the last post on this thread, all I kept thinking was how I wanted to let you know that I'd punch you in the face...

Kim Kardashian

Yes, I would punch this woman, errrr plastic surgery junkie. Thanks goodness that family is becoming increasingly irrelevant.

All the world's indeed a stage, And we are merely players, Performers and portrayers, Each another's audience, Outside the gilded cage - Limelight (1981)
 

Kanye West. How pleased I would be to knock the "I am a god" out of him.

Close second is Chris Brown. Just for the irony.

in it 2 win it
 
"jankynoname"

Sheldon Adelson hands down

I like it ^^

Tim Geithner, Pelosi a close second.

Get your facts first, then you can distort them as you please.
 

Hmmmm....this probably changes daily.

  1. Whoever comes up the GEICO commercials
  2. Eric Holder
  3. Hillary Clinton
  4. Bill Maher
  5. Jim Buss (Lakers co-owner; dude seriously needs to step away from basketball-related decision making)
  6. Algore
  7. Lena Dunham
  8. Michael Bloomberg
  9. ISIS and al-Qaeda, if the "punching" involved 5000-lb JDAM bombs
  10. Rolling Stone (the mag, not the band)

Oops, just realized I had to pick only one. Maybe I have anger management issues haha....

Strong pick. Very strong.

Come on Dick, I would have thought you'd have more concrete people like Hank on your list. Personally, I'd like to beat the shit out of, not just punch, a few people in my past who have fucked me over in real dollar terms. Celebs and politicians can be annoying but I'd like to royally fuck up a few people that cost me well into 7/8 figures. When I can't fall asleep at night instead of counting sheep, I get an odd Palpatine like calm by thinking of smashing their faces in and I somehow sleep like a baby (although baby's don't sleep, so more so that I sleep like a drank a fifth of bourbon).

 

This will probably cause a fracas, but I would punch Jeremy Clarkson.

Now the world doesn't get to see the McLaren P1 vs Ferrari theFerrari vs Porsche 918 battle that EVERYONE has been waiting for.

make it hard to spot the general by working like a soldier
 

Strong pick with Lena Dunham. In that same vein, I'd have to throw in Sabrina Rubin Erdely, the Rolling Stones writer of the UVA campus rape story. And not because she got the story wrong, but because she REFUSED to apologize to the fraternity she tarnished in her apology-non-apology a month ago. How low could one's character possibly be to (mistakenly?) accuse a group of young men of ritualized gang rape and then to refuse to apologize to them once she realized the story was false? Simply unbelievable.

he literally might not survive the impact. are you prepared to kill a man?

heister: Look at all these wannabe richies hating on an expensive salad. https://arthuxtable.com/
 

Russell Brand And several times over. Because I feel like after the first punch, he'd act indignant about it and like oh my gawsh did you just hit me? That's when you hit him a bunch more then put his ass to sleep. Then he comes to with his eyebrows missing.

Concur with above regarding Lena Dunham but also I am throwing in Amy Schumer - I don't think this requires an explanation as they are essentially the same gross person. Taste the equality.

'I'm jacked... JACKED TO THE TITS!!'
 

25 years ago there wasn't a fully scaled and entrenched duopoly that could stifle any sort of market dynamic that would help moderate ISP practices.

Anyways, I'd rather not derail this thread but I think it would make for a good stand alone thread. I'm sure we could violently disagree with each other there.

 

At least for me the stand-out mention on here is Lena Dunham. Grayson Allen also comes to mind.

"Who am I? I'm the guy that does his job. You must be the other guy."
 

Seems cruel to want to punch Mitch McConnell, he looks like a turtle and he is really old.

I second wanting to punch Paul Ryan though.

I wouldn't put people like Pelosi and Maxine Waters on the list, just because they are so old and fragile...

 

Why Ben Shapiro or Matt Walsh? They are just pundits (I think) that you don't have to listen to or care about and don't have lots of power like Paul Ryan...

bad take bro
