Punch him.

In your rage at being so casually dismissed, you fling out a fist at his smug face. Your boss doesn't talk about his personal life much at work, and certainly not with you, but if he did you would have known that he was a black belt in three different forms of martial arts. If you did know that, it probably would have seemed strange that he was also an office manager. It might have also prompted you to not attack him. Sadly, you did not know that. Sadly, you cannot appreciate the grace and poise with which he guides you to the floor or the raw power of his strike as it collapses your trachia.

Perhaps if you could breathe you could appreciate those things more.
