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?

DVDs
The DVDs at the neighbourhood store all have those square security stickers with a coil-like circuit made of tinfoil underneath. They were originally made for video cassettes and are designed to set off the detector at the door to the shop. Written on the sticker

"PLEASE
BE KIND
REWIND"

How does one rewind a DVD?
