John is a house painter. One day he was working on a job when a carpenter who was also working on the job, told John that he thought he was doing a terrible job. John, who was up a ladder at the time, shouted "if I wasn't up this ladder, I would punch you in the face." When John saw the carpenter later in the afternoon, he flicked his paint brush at the carpenter and paint landed on his hammer and his face. Can John be liable for torts based on the above facts
