Choose not to - then kiss the closest to you.
It doesnt matter how hopeless, the expression 'Punch the Day in the Face' does not mean or support punching someone in the face.
Maybe try sticking to the topic?
In my opinion, I am very much sticking to the subject.
There is aggression displayed in that saying, similar to "go and kick butt".
When words like those are passively infiltrating our everyday language, peoples' persona can be influenced and impacted.

I agree that words can be powerful. But context and meaning need to relate.
I dont agree that the lame expression ' punch the day in the face' incites violence.
Since when does a day have a face? Its abstract- it only means go for it!
'Go and kick butt' is not similar- its a directive- and could be used to incite aggression under certain circumstances.
There are a lot of words like 'punch' 'kick' etc and they already exist in everyday language, and the connection between language and behaviour is incredibly complex, not limited by use.
I would like to see the proof that the saying 'pinch and punch for the first of the month' and as my welsh friend would reply 'a flick and a hit for being so quick' incites violence.

Perhaps, ultimately, men and women have the right to protect their dignity, in a dignified manner.

Does a man have the right to hit a woman back ?? This woman was told by her 7 year old son that the man had frighten him, so she raced over to the man and started to hit him from behind around the head and face he then turned around ahd hit her across the face. Do you think he had the right to hit her back.
It was more than likely a reflex action.
If somebody started hitting you from behind you're just going to turn and clobber them one in the same action,
regardless of who it is,(you're not going to give them the opportunity to hit you in the face).
She did the wrong thing,not him,

Given how hard we fight for equal rights. Women like this hurt other women.
