100% positive.

According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the phrase was originally "to have another think coming."

“I guess you've got another think coming."— Jane G. Austin, Outpost, 1867

“The neighborhood thought when Mr. Radley went under Boo would come out, but it had another think coming: Boo's elder brother returned from Pensacola and took Mr. Radley's place.”
— Harper Lee, To Kill a Mockingbird, 1960

Obama criticized for “another thing coming”.
