The Germans hoped to get a peace treaty with the US, the Soviet POWs got sent to the worst camps.

What good would keeping a British officer alive do if they sued for peace with the US?

Hitler really wanted peace with Britain and the US, like to an irrational degree (gasp!) He even delayed military action and chose some really stupid strategies in hope of driving them to the negotiations table.

Anyway my whole point was that to the Nazis certain countries were Aryan and the POWs got fair treatment.
Soviets, as mentioned were lucky if they survived.

It wasn't that irrational---there were a lot of well-connected Hitler supporters in both Britain and the US. Former King Edward and Henry Ford were probably the biggest names, but there were quite a few prominent people in both countries pushing for a rapprochement well into the war.

He's an interesting fellow, that's for sure. Dude was a WW2 combat Ace who's legs had been amputated because of hotdogging prior to the war's outbreak. He had regrettable political views, but did much for the handcapped and disabled after the war. He also had a reputation for extremely salty language.

When he was a POW in Germany:

Even funnier to me is that his right leg got caught in the wreckage and he fell out when the straps holding it on came off, and the Germans actually gave formal approval for the British to fly over and parachute a spare leg down to him.

Are Millennials Ruining the Spank Paddle Industry?

Millennials seem content to spank someone raw with a cutting board rather than invest in industrial-grade spank paddles. What's more, some more industrious millennials have taken to carving their own paddles from marginally larger cutting boards. Is the spank paddle industry in for a rude awakening?

I'm not giving that lovely clickbait the traffic, but the headline is ridiculous. How does the average millennial spend ninety-six billion dollars on anything?

Just loving lol if you think milennials have money.

E: I caved and clicked on it. It's actually "all milennials collectively spend $96b annually on food" but the author is a smug idiot pandering to the kind of smug idiot boomers who think that wanting affordable education and a living wage is just laziness and entitlement. Who needs things like "accuracy" or "basic journalistic integrity" when you have the self-congratulatory ego masturbation of a thousand clicks and shares from people your dad's age who lost touch with the world in 1975 and think everything still works the way it did when they were 30 and already had a house, kids, a fully paid off car, and a guaranteed pension.

Maybe if boomers weren't living longer and hanging onto their spanking paddles well past normal retirement age then millennials might have a chance.

loving boomers, practically destroyed the worlds forests just to get all the wood for their spanking paddles. Buncha assholes need three spanking paddles for each person, AND a summer spanking paddle in the Poconos.

Are the materials of the paddle sustainably sourced? Because while I'm a sex pervert, I also care about the health of our world's forests. Mine are hand-hewn in small batches from one tree at a time, treated with oil derived from that tree's sap and rendered leaves and bark. And the form factor, while mildly unpleasant to the eye, makes the most of the available wood in the tree, and gives you the classic, rustic spanking that gold-rush frontiersmen enjoyed.
