You gotta love travel advice on travel.stackexchange.com. This innocuous question "How to spend 19:00 to 1:00 in Kiel?" (a city in Germany's north) is replied to in this fashion:
No disrespect to Kiel, but it's really boring. A long time ago on an Interrail, I went to Kiel, figuring that at least it must have a good WWII museum given it was one of the main U-boat pens, but no, it was totally demolished. You can get more period nostalgia by playing Rammstein "Reise, Reise" and having someone slap you in the face with a wet herring. And you'd still have a herring.
How rude. :D No more Germans don't have humour. We do! And we have herrings!!
Other than that, I liked Kiel quite a bit when I went there, on several occasions. But nightlife, without hanging around students today I'd have a hard time killing time if it weren't for #ingress.
