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 friend Sarah Sweeney was complaining to her mother about the stale bread in the house, her mother responded with some interesting advice:

Mrs Sweeney: "Just pop it in the microwave for a few seconds"

Sarah: "It's microwave mother not a bloody time machine!"
