kickable

Able to punt

Kickable describes something that can be kicked or invites kicking—either physically suitable for it or deserving of it.

A ball is kickable in the literal sense; an annoying coworker might be kickable in the figurative one: That smug face is so kickable.

The word often carries a note of temptation or frustration.
