To wonder which celebrities you’d gladly give a metaphorical slap, if there were no consequences?

Not endorsing violence obviously but if it were just a harmless slap on a fantasy level - no consequences, no scandal, just vibes, who would be on your list?

Mine would be:

  • Trump - not technically a celeb but come on.
  • Diddy - no notes needed.
  • Jay Z - eternally smug and cheated on Beyoncé? Slap.
  • Kanye - not even sure where to start.
  • Chris Brown - this one’s personal, we all know why.
  • Kendall Jenner - something about her is just rude.

AIBU to think some people’s energy is just slap-worthy?

Pretty much anyone who’s a light entertainment or current affairs presenter. They nearly all do my head in. Fake, smug, and annoying, the lot of them.

Jon Ronson.

Edited as I changed my mind I don't want to slap anyone. But I would like to bury Vladimir Putin up to his neck in quick-setting cement.

Katie Price. Her behaviour over the years just enrages me. Her kids are going to grow up with so many issues, that is unforgivable of her to damage them the way she has.

Nigel Farage. He has a Face I’d never tire of slapping.
