This is a question Useless advice

As a new parent, people seem to think it's OK to pass on any and every old wives tale possible. "Don't hug him too much". What? Quite what possesses people to pass on baseless, idiotic, useless advice I don't know.

That said, I quite often give car drivers directions and then, after they've moved off, realise that I've sent them down a bike-only route, so I can give as good as I get.

What useless advice have you been given (or handed out) recently?

Worst advice I ever received...
...came from my dad. You see, a Nigerian gentleman told me that he needed my help to move £300 million out of the country via my bank account, but my dad was dead against it. Can't see why, he'd promised me 10% of the cash on completion, we'd have been living like lottery winners now instead of sweeping the streets for crusts of bread and stealing fags off tramps.
