1. Thanks. LOL

Let's hope no one from GD sees this one. If they do, I'm popping some :popcorn: and getting ready just in case.

2. They used to use sharpened swords on royalty & VIPs
back in the day - but the executioners had to have a good aim, which they sometimes didn't.........

17. Hey this energy I'd love to put into a relationship
has got to be expressed somewhere. Sick humor just hits me sometimes. ;-)

11. Are you suggesting using something less conventional for beheadings?
Say, a beheading using only a Turkey baster, or maybe beheadings using a small, pink, squirrel?

21. Reading Nabokov, by any chance?
"Invitation to a Beheading", specifically?

23. Oh. Crap.
There is a tremendously odd (in the Nabokovian fashion) scene in the very beginning of the book I referenced, where the person in charge of the defense of the main character in a sentencing hearing actually argues for "traditional decapitation" or something like that - making you wonder what the alternative was.

25. My guess would be an axe and a chopping block
or a large bladed knife similar to a machete.
