Morphology

punchable = punch (transparent) = punch + able

The adjective is a straightforward -able derivation from the verb 'punch' meaning 'capable of being punched' (including the figurative 'deserving to be punched'), so learners can infer the meaning from the base.

Etymology

Punchable comes from punch ('to hit with a fist') plus the ending -able ('able to be'), the same ending you see in readable. So someone called punchable seems so annoying that you 'might want to punch' them, and people often use the word as a joke to show strong annoyance.
