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?

The war.
The war IS over, in the sense the government has been overthrown (read "liberated" if you are a yank) and Saddam is no longer in charge.

However, now we have all these people blowing themselves up and shooting folk. We need to have our forces in Iraq until they manage to form a peace keeping force that can handle the situation.

If all the "bring our boys home" lot are so fond of peace and such good people, why don’t they realise that brining our troops home will result in Iraq ripping itself apart?

My advice (thus making this post relevant)

Bush, Blair, don't start what you aren’t going to finish.

It also applies to all you can eat buffets.
