I would not describe whats happening in post #2835476 as stabbing and post #406139 has been impaled on a tree branch, no stabbing involved.

I guess you cannot be stabbed by something that is not sharp, but can still be impaled by it...?
Or stabbed requires someone or something to do it, whereas impaled requires none?

The second one fits the definition of "stabbing" as to injure someone using a sharp, pointed object. Stabbing doesn't necessarily require someone else, you can also stab yourself by accident or get stabbed by something falling. "Stabbed" also refers to the fact after it's happened, so it definitely fits.

As for the first one, not even the wiki definition of impaled fits it. If it's to be tagged as impaled, then it should also be tagged as stabbed, since the character is getting stabbed by a whole body. It's a pretty extreme case, but as many things in the Monogatari series it's just something brought to its most absurd end (a vampire getting her heart literally stabbed by someone else.).

When I hear "stabbed," I think of something sharp and handheld, like a knife or a shiv.

"Impaled" gives a different mental image: something long and pierces through the entire body.

Something like a spear could do both: If it pierces the skin, then it's stabbed; if it pierces the body, then it's impaled
