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?

My old man...always used to offer the sage advice "Don't get your nose broken" every time I went out on the town.
What happens the time he doesn't say it?
that's right, broken nose. Admittedly not a fight, I was moshing and collided with someone's shoulder, but still a broken nose. Never seen so much blood.
Does that count as useless advice? or useless lack of it?
