Thread: They made me change it !

I must confess, I too find Vlad to be quite offensive*. Why couldn't you be just another Michael?








*One who impaled mothers & their babies alive by the hundreds on stakes in open fields to scare off Ottoman invaders; invited poor people to a banquet hall, only to burn them alive etc





































I wonder how he's going to take this?

Well I suppose they are correct he was a bit of a git.
BUT.... as this was a little while ago I'm suprised anyone cares.
There's been enough count vlad movies over the years and no one has complained about them.

How many of them went to watch that dracula movie that came out a couple of years ago? Some people are just a bit quick to jump on thier soap box.

Saying that if you called you self Hitler I would think that was poor taste but I don't think I'd exactly mount a campaign to get your name changed.

well i never knew what your nickname meant.

How am I gonna take this ?

I just don't care ! LOL.

And besides poor ol' Vlad is always getting bad press. The numbers are exaggerations (why, I only counted 900 not 1000's as claimed ha ha) and several of these stories appear in various forms so which is correct ? And who wrote them ?

I'm not saying the aren't true just that you have to know details of the bias (political, religious etc) of the primary source in order to make a judgement.

And don't tell me you've never wanted to nail someone's hat to their head ! I do everytime I see a baseball cap worn backwards !

Oh and the you tube guy is me.

I think if they take offence to your nic then they obviously have way too much time on their hands, they need to lighten up far christs sake ( ooh sorry i mentioned he who was crucified ! )
