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?

Also, those bloody "What Would Jesus Do?" wristbands. Stupidest advice ever. Jesus lived 2,000 years ago, and, in their minds at least, was the Son of God. If I walked into Great Ormond Street hospital and started turfing children out of bed, telling them to walk, and spitting on blind people, I'd get a restraining order.
