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?

"you just know"
When talking to my Mum about marriage she told me when I meet the right man "you just know, as soon as i met your step-dad I just knew he was the one". I asked her why she'd married my Dad then to which she replied "well, I thought I knew then but it turned out I was wrong".
My step-dad gave better advice: "never marry the person you can live with, marry the person you can't live without"
