'You've got another THING coming.'
OR
'You've got another THINK coming.'
If my friend and I don't settle this one soon it's gonna end up in fisticuffs.
This is from a pretty authoritative source, but just sort of sits on the fence, "our citational evidence highly favors "you've got another think coming...but you might be interested to know that in an informal poll I conducted of my fellow editors, 60% favored "you've got another thing coming," while 40% claimed "you've got another think coming."

ok. Is it...
"Shut up BITCH!" or "Shut up DITCH!" cause I called this chick on a school bus a ditch once and they all laughed.
Over the past 15 years I have been systematically killing those Ditches off one by one for laughing at me.

Actually, while thing seems to make more sense, the original expression is
“If that’s what you think, you’ve got another think coming.”
So it's definitely 'think', but it's misquoted a lot, maybe because "You've Got Another Thing Coming" is a Judas Priest song.
