I could feel the texture of the table on my knees as, in my mind anyway, I crawled across the table and my fist made contact with his cheek. But if I was ever saving myself for one great punch, this was the guy. So how did he achieve this special honour? It started early. We had a meeting scheduled, I had asked for him at reception and instead of attending himself he sent three members of his team. None of them had any idea why we were meeting. Rude but not a punchable offence. After explaining who my colleague and I were, and why we were there, the meeting actually took shape.
O ne of the great strengths of the English language is the number of ways it provides to describe people who annoy us. True, German has the word "Backpfeifengesicht" — "a face in need of a punch" — but English overwhelms us with options, thanks partly to its abundance of vulgarisms. If I call you a "wanker" I mean something subtly different from a "dickhead". It can be hard to pinpoint these nuances without resort to further swearing, as demonstrated by users of urbandictionary.
