A punch I could understand. Rage clouds reason. A slap, not a punch, indicates reason, but then the place and time of the slap defies all reason to me.
It's so strange.
That probably is the best summary of men way of thinking !Not that men don't slap other men, there is apparently a whole championship about it
Wait, Conan doesnt have a show anymore?
He got fired for slapping Andy Richter.Wait, Conan doesnt have a show anymore?
Thats just it, it wasnt a spur of the moment thing. Nothing rage filled about itThing that is so odd to me is that in a moment of him having lost his cool so to speak, acting on emotions and being pissed off from someone insulting his wife, he did an open hand slap. Only times I've ever seen or heard about a man hitting another man for something like that has been with a closed fist. Never even heard stories told from people who were present at such an event end with "and then he got so pissed off that he slapped the other guy".
Not that men don't slap other men, there is apparently a whole championship about it, but that's sort of the point. It's a "gimmic". Men don't usually do that to my knowledge. Cross the line, get punched in the face. Slaps are more emasculating, but again, then it is calculated as such, not a hit based on an immediate emotional response.
Think about it. I'd bet that most people here have at one point been at a situation where words are said and things escalated to the point of your fist tightening up. But you didn't do it. Now think about how fast those thoughts of "I shouldn't do it because X reason" come up. They're family, they are friends, it's a bad situation, it's wrong, it's violence in response to words.... whatever it was that caused you not to do it, those thoughts and impulse control came very fast, and that is in the moment so to speak.
If he had time to "think about it", as in rage felt moment that subsided, as he walked towards him calmly, you'd also think that he would have the common sense to not do it right then and there. More of a "lets step outside!" kind of deal.
Granted, probably very good for Will that he didn't knock him out, as that would most certainly be assault charges and the likes, but again, calming down to the point where you realize that should also make you instantly realize that it's not a good idea to hit, slap or not, someone in front of hundreds of people and millions watching at live major internationally televised public event.

I didn’t even know he existed until this post. That says a lot about this whack job family.I like how Trey Smith is so much more normal than the others that came out of Jada.
