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?

A friend of mine....Used to give me this stupid peice of advice back in my school days. That is until I saw Bill Hicks and 'borrowed' his comeback.
'You know, it takes more energy to frown than it does to smile'
BH'You know it takes more energy to point that out than it would to leave me alone'
It's silly advice anyways, like if you've just been dumped, fired and your dog run over, forcing a muppetesque grin on your face is going to make it all better.
