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?

My dad....
...once took a deep breath and told me:

"Don't shove things up your bum... It's not designed for it"

I suppose this was sound advice to give to any child prone to experimentation... quite why he told me this when I was two years into my degree I will never know.
