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?

GNVQsI was advised at school to go to university and get a good job working in an office!
I am now eating cereal from a communal mug with milk stolen from the fridge, my arms twisted with RSI and my eyes burnt out shells from staring at this kind of bollocks all day long.
The other day I needed a plumber as I don't know how to work my flat. He said it would cost me £400 to do what was needed, and it would take him a couple of hours, only it would have to wait because he was in Barbados for the next 3 months.
If my sperm hasn't all died from poor living conditions, I will recommend to my pikey children that they join the "dim kids" in the queue for a proper actual job.
