    Georgia:

    Merely, threatening to hit someone (terroristic threats) is a felony punishable by 1-10 years in prison. If you keep your mouth shut and actually hit them instead of just threatening to do so then you have only committed the offense of simple battery, which is a misdemeanor punishable by less than 1 year in jail.

    *kitten* for hire, usually in the context of getting a happy ending at a massage parlor, is illegal although, if you think about it, it really isn't *kitten* if someone else does it for you.
