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 Gran
is now dead.

On one of the last times I saw her, when she was in good (ie "batty") health, just as I was about to leave, she held my arm and whispered as ernestly as you like "Watch out for the Wogs, love, they'll get you."

Thanks to her advice, they didn't.
