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?

Worst Advice EverFrom an Obs/Gynae registrar: Don't have a Ceasarian Section, natural is best, and if anything does go wrong, we will have you in theatre in a flash.
Yeah. Right. 12 hours later, and my wife is in agony trying to deliver twins, one of which, as we found out later, is coming down shulder first. There were also 2 other pregnant ladies in trouble, and only 1 Anaethatist on call. Result? One dead set of twins, one live birth, and we lost one of the boys. Natural is best my arse. If I ever set eyes on that smug cunt of a Reg, I will rip out his fucking eyes
