Useless adviceAs 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?

meeting my Irish girlfriend's parents for the first timeshe 'advised' (read commanded) me that in order to make a good impression I should make an effort with my appearance.
Being Australian, I had to consult the internet to see what was appropriate for formal occassions in Belfast.
I though I copied it exactly but I don't know, maybe I had the gloves on wrong or something.
Mod Edit: No leeching pictures please.
