Hit You so Hard, Your X Will Feel It
Stock Phrase for threatening to hit someone so hard,the damage will spread to his friend, his mom, his hair or even an abstract concept. A frequent variant is "I will hurt you so bad that X"

Often used in tandem with If You Ever Hurt Her, Badass Boast, To the Pain or Cut His Heart Out with a Spoon. Sometimes used as a Pre Ass Kicking One Liner. Can be literal if there's a Psychic Link involved (doubly so for Twin Telepathy).

If the harm is financial rather than physical—say, Alice is threatening to sue Bob—it may be a more realistic threat like "I'll sue you so hard your grandkids will be in debt."

Not to be confused with Hit So Hard The Calendar Felt It.

Examples:

Film
  • The inexorable Street Fighter movie, featuring Jean-Claude Van Damme hamming it up as Guile.
    Guile: Well, I'm not going to go home. I'm gonna get on my boat, I'm gonna go up river and I'm gonna kick that sonovabitch Bison's ass so HARD! That the next Bison wannabe, is gonna feel it!
  • Tank Girl. While fighting Kesslee, Tank Girl says (in a voice like Muhammad Ali):
    I'm gonna hit you so hard, your children will be born bruised.
  • In Multiplicity, Doug issues the following threat to Doug #2 in front of Doug #3:
    I'll hit you so hard I'll kill him!
  • The Faculty: Mild-mannered teacher Ms. Burke, after she's been infected with the alien parasite, drops this bomb on Zeke:
    I'm sick of you, little boy! And if I have to see you peddling your little Wonder Dust again, I'm gonna shove my foot so far up your ass, you'll be sucking my toes 'till graduation!

Literature
  • From The Dresden Files:
    I will kill you so hard, your last ten victims will make miraculous recoveries.
  • Literal but unspoken example: At the end of the Discworld book Mort, the title character ends up in a duel with Death during which he receives a slap to the face that leaves a permanent mark. When Mort's daughter Susan is introduced in Soul Music, she has an identical mark. Death really did hit Mort so hard his child felt it.

Live Action TV
  • Kelly from Misfits is repeatedly accused of being a Chav and she eventually responds to this by screaming at another girl:
    "If you call me that one more time. I'll kick you so hard in the c*nt your mum will feel it!"
  • In the first episode of Leverage, the nascent team gets played by the villain, and Elliot threatens "I'm gonna hurt him so bad even people who look like him are gonna bleed."
  • A variant from Law & Order, after Mc Coy has charged his old friend with a crime: "Once I get this dismissed I'll hit you with so many lawsuits your grandkids will be answering motions."

Music
  • From The Amazing BrandO's Castlevania 3 song:
    Trevor Belmont: I am gonna whip (whip crack) you (whip crack) so hard your mom will feel it!
