[Translation]

Post by N30F15H »

my justification for this is that the chances of me getting to level of this translation in the next billion years is slim, anyway

"I hung, drew and quatered myself just for fun"

Thanks if you try :D

A strange idea of fun ...

me ipsum in quattuor partes, ludi causa, detraxi

or (perhaps better)

in quattuor partes, ludi causa, a me ipso detractus sum

(or detracta if you are a woman)

You might want to use the verb "trucidavi" from "trucidare", to cut into pieces.
