What's the worst advice you've ever gotten?

[GMiscer]

"Follow your passion"

"Just be yourself"

None of those actually work in the real world

[BrooksKoepka]

Find yourself a virgin good girl

[gtg]

just take a shower bro

[andyray]

Not advice I've been directly given but I hate when people say chit like

"Who cares what you look like"

Well literally everyone does, I'm not some stereotype miscer who obseses over looks like jawline etc but I acknowledge appearance is an important part of life and can't stand when delusional copers downplay it

[Bodhy]

Just be yourself is very hackneyed.


Does it mean behave as you think you ought to be behaving? You do that anyway.

[Evil_D]

"you're over-thinking"

[alltrapbrah]

Just be yourself is very hackneyed.

IMO it roughly translates to "drop the performance". It's usually said to people in situations where they might be tempted to put on a performance to achieve a desired outcome, e.g. a first date, a job interview, etc.

[MisquePhaggot]

"Leave your ego at the door"

[Stackerbruh]

"always have an opinion on everything" < multiple managers

NO you don't, especially if you don't know anything on the subject. STFU then

[TheMossad]

"Don't kill nazis. Hear them out. They have a right to speak."

[ALinkToThePast]

"Talk to people about it when you have issues with depression. Open up about it."


Just lol at that absolute nonsense. If there's one thing I've learned over the years, it's that talking about your feelings in general as a man is a bad idea. All it does is make other people view you as weak and drive them away from you. Don't for a moment think it's any better talking to close friends and relatives about it either, because it will drive them away faster than you'd think too. People want to be around fun happy people all the time, not to listen to you complain about your problems.

I would say there should be a FEW people you can actually talk to those things about. And those people are extremely important. You also need to be a good time and fun to be around true. But ideally close people you should be able to talk about those things with.

Also there is a difference between confronting problems and issues and actually doing something about it versus whining and doing nothing.

[Aircommander91]

"Do the deadlifts"

[USMARINE8152]

Don't pull out I'm on the pill

The whole emotional incontinence thing makes me sick.
There's a time and a place.
Why does that even need to be said?

[georgeenoob]

To get an electric bike. Got into an accident and tore my shoulder ligaments.

"Bitcoin is just another pyramid scheme, don't buy it"

- While a bitcoin was well under $100

Fuark.

[Retoaded]

"Do the deadlifts"

Also squatting creates a surge in HGH which makes your arms grow too.

And eat 6 meals a day and 400 grams of protein minimum.

You can also be 5'10", 230 ripped as a natty.

Plus the duck eggs.

Based and truthpilled (ded fkkn srs)

99% "friends" don't give a chit about your issues and they'll just store that info and use it against you as soon as they see an opportunity

[Samraiwise]

I never ask for advice.

[baldbrah]

"You should marry that useless sloot that drinks, smokes, can't hold a job"

[ProSaibot]

''Respect women''
''Work hard to live a good life''

[Voidgaze]

"Just lie on your resume"

Then there's the endless chit tier advice I've gotten from miscers. Strange I started getting dates the moment I stopped asking misc for dating app advice.
