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?

Arsehole uncle
I once got my finger caught in a cupboard, I was about 10 years old at the time. I was so desperate for some pain relief that I wasn't thinking about what I was doing when i followed my uncle's instruction to pour salt on my open bloody wound... Need I say anymore? The twunt then said to rinse the salt off with hot water, which just made it worse.

Oh well, the year after that his wife left him and his life turned to shit, so karma got the fucker....
