        That’s why he started the impaling. His name was too long.

        Vlad the expaler.

        Is that a word?

        Impale, expale, I just got an ounce in the mail.

      Vlad the Impugner. He used to accuse people of lying all the time.

      Perhaps he was well endowed and already had the title before.

    He did impale a loooooot of people though. He also had the title “Dracula”, and may be the source of some of the legends about vampires.

    So yeah, it’s never too late to pursue your dreams, but you do still have to get off your ass and pursue the hell out of them. Also it helps if your dad is rich and powerful.

    You say that, but I’m 46 and I’ve never been given the opportunity to impale anyone. Now is that fair?

    you know, I always wondered how he impaled people. Like was it belly to back? seems simple and just lots of stabbing. Was it like butt to head? That would be pretty horrifying because you gotta get through bones and organs and breathing Was it limbs? Be a pretty slow death.

      Ass up was common, but also impaling through turbans for even great disrespect.

      Ok, so image a spit roast, except the shaft is a wooden rod the thickness of your forearm and the meat is you. The shaft is forced into the meat, starting at the ass, and carefully inserted as to not damage its surroundings until it comes out the other end, this being your mouth, and then the shaft is firmly placed in the ground so that you are now an example of what not to do. Also, it is said that vlad was so good at impairing people that they would still be alive after the shaft went all the way through, leaving them in pain as they slowly die from either organ failure, internal bleeding, or thirst and/or starvation.

    This demon got his head shopped off and impaled (if I recall correctly) outside of Istanbul.

    In 1476, while marching to yet another battle with the Ottomans, Vlad and a small vanguard of soldiers were ambushed, and Vlad was killed and beheaded — by most reports, his head was delivered to Mehmed II in Constantinople as a trophy to be displayed above the city’s gates.

    He got what was coming to him.
