Under common law, assault is defined as the intent to inflict an imminent apprehension of harmful or offensive contact, and an imminent apprehension of contact occurs. That basically means that if you move your fist toward someone's face, attempting to get them to recoil because you want them to believe you are going to hit them, than you have committed the tort of assault. Battery is defined as the intent to inflict a harmful or offensive contact, and a harmful or offensive contact occurs. Note that this does not require harm. Intentionally slapping someone on the butt, could be construed as a battery because there was intent and an offensive contact. If the person knew the smack was coming, you can be held liable for assault and battery.
because your happy while ur slapping!! people just don't have other names for it. doh!!
Because battery requires touching. This describes assault.
In most jurisdictions I am aware of "Simple" Assault (meaning assault with nothing but your hands or fists) is a misdemeanor. It can be charged as a more serious crime depending upon the seriousness of the injuries inflicted on the victim.
Because slapping people is awesome.
No. When a laptop is plugged in, it immediately switches to AC power and begins charging the battery. The battery cannot become "overcharged" because special circuitry in the battery is designed to prevent this.

No because there is verbal assualtAnother View: There is a common mis-conception that someone who verbally abuses you is committing an "assault." But the only "assault" under the law is the unlawful touching kind or the threat of imminent physical harm. Curse and abuse, as untaseteful as it may be, does not constitute an assualt.
The computer is going into hibernation mode as the battery dies. You can use a preference pane such as SmartSleep (See links below) to control the sleep states or try to ensure that the battery does not become exhausted regularly.
because he's a comedian and slapping himself is funny
"If a restraining order is placed on you because of supposed aggression or assault, a battery attorney can help you prove in court that the plaintiff was never in any danger. Thus, you prove the restraining order was baseless and it becomes moot."
