I think the worst advice I have seen is the one I just read advising a parent to introduce her young children to porn. And I guess just as bad or not worse are the occasional persons who advise the asker to commit suicide.
So what bad advice have others seen on here?What is the worst advice you have seen given here on Yahoo! Answers?
A pregnant woman was asking advice about hemorrhoids and a person told her
';Women who go to bed with itchy butt, wake up with stinky finger.';What is the worst advice you have seen given here on Yahoo! Answers?
I've seen so many bad advice on here, that I can't remember them.

I am planning a trip to hawaii in jan '09. any advice when to travel to get the best airline fares?
I am leaving from cleveland going to honolulu. Last I checked about 1 month ago they were about 600 round trip. now they are almost 1000.00. I know flights are going up but that seems like a big jump.I am planning a trip to hawaii in jan '09. any advice when to travel to get the best airline fares?
You should be able to get the best prices in airline travel to Hawaii anytime from mid January till mid April. That is their slow season if you want to call anytime kind of slow in Hawaii. I would wait till after the summer to really start looking daily for good airline prices. Also, if possible look at flying midweek too.I am planning a trip to hawaii in jan '09. any advice when to travel to get the best airline fares?
Unless a major airline comes into the Hawaii market, the prices will not be going down in the near future. If you were able to grab a ticket for $600 last month, you should've taken that one while you could beause you're unlikely to see it again.
The fares will normally go down a bit after the summer rush so logically you should be able to get something a bit more reasonable in October. However, with the monopoly that Hawaiian airlines is creating in Hawaii and the rising gas costs, anything that is ';normal'; isn't true anymore.
Good luck, happy hunting, and happy travels!
Prices will come down after college students start going back to school which is typically the first two weeks of January. But because of the loss of Aloha Airlines and ATA, and major airlines consolidating, prices will still be high.
You may also want to check out http://www.808jellyfish.com/ to see when the jellyfish will be coming to the beaches. Jellyfish hit the beaches on a consistent lunar cycle, therefore you may want to plan your vacation outside the invasion dates.
Don't worry!! for best airfare please refer to this guidebook, it tells u where to search for cheap airfare. I saved $300 for my flight from San Fran to New York.

My bf used to be a heroin junkie,he has been clean for 2 years,but says he is having alot of cravings? advice?
he says he has alot of cravings and that he hasnt and doesnt want to do it. but i worry that he will relapse. if you have any knowledge or experience please help me.My bf used to be a heroin junkie,he has been clean for 2 years,but says he is having alot of cravings? advice?
Addiction of any kind is chronic, irreversible and incurable. An addict which has been ';clean'; for an extended, uninterrumped period, and still craves the drug, may again relapse into his/her habit if he/she doesn't get IMMEDIATE help and support. Your bf should seek help RIGHT NOW, or he is in great danger of going back to his old ways. Your support is of extreme importance, as you are the person closest to him right now. There are medications which can help diminish the cravings (e.g. Suboxone, ReVia), but these are only available through some state and private programs, since only a few MD's with special training and licensing can prescribe them. While the patient is on these medications, if he uses even an insignificant amount of heroin, the body goes into an instantaneous and full-fledged ';Abstinence Syndrome';. A friend of mine had this extremely unpleasant experience; he lost control of his bowels and bladder, had excruciating bone and joint pain, uncontrollable vomiting, and became so weak that he couldn't get out of bed for almost a week. This is a powerful detterent to drug use, but phsychological support is imperative, as well as support by friends and family. But, if your BF refuses to seek help, my best advice is that you should pack your things and RUN, if you don't want to end up squeezed out of your last penny, or selling your body to support his habit (which he may force you to do when desperate for a ';fix';).My bf used to be a heroin junkie,he has been clean for 2 years,but says he is having alot of cravings? advice?
get him into support groups
That is normal, and he will probably have some level of craving for the rest of his life.
The best thing you can do to help is to be supportive enough for him to be able to tell you that (which he did) and also to tell you if he slips up.
Beating an addiction, any addiction, is extremely difficult. By being able to listen to him and to be able to ask him how he is doing in a non-judgemental way (but still getting outside help if need be) and without being an enabler (letting him rationalize that this ONE time is okay) you are doing the best you can.
In other words, if he says he almost did some, or even if he did do some, don't hey angry and yell. Acknowledge what he did, don't give an inch that what he did was wrong, make sure he sees that it was wrong, and tell him you want to help make things better.
Ultimately it is up to him, and only up to him, to be able to quit. But having the strong support of someone he loves and cares for is very, very helpful.
Send him back to rehab or other appropriate treatment. Is he hanging out with new friends? Ultimately, you may have to leave him.
Get him some help, now before it will be to late.
Run away as fast as you can.face make up remover wrinkle eye cream

Is it a bad sign when a guy has trouble giving advice?
Is it a bad sign if you ask a guy you are interested in for advice on a good gift for my dad, and he says he will have to ask his friend tomorrow and get back to me? Does that mean that he doesn't care to help me? I have been getting the vibe that he is interest in me as well, so wouldn't he want to help me?Is it a bad sign when a guy has trouble giving advice?
...jumping to negative conclusions?
Dont do that!
lol, especialyl in cases like this
No, he is genuinely unsure ,,....dont forget, evry family is different as well
YOu should lok at him as a whole, and more than one thing before you classify him as unhelpful

Is Rush Limbaugh Able To Predict What Liberals Will Do Next OR Do The Libs Listen To Him & Take His Advice?
Rush always tells us what`s going to happen, and he is always right. WHY ? Can he see into the future or do the liberals that listen to him secretly value his opinions ?Is Rush Limbaugh Able To Predict What Liberals Will Do Next OR Do The Libs Listen To Him %26amp; Take His Advice?
He predicts it. But that doesn't make him smart.
Liberals are pretty simple-minded, so they are easy to predict.Is Rush Limbaugh Able To Predict What Liberals Will Do Next OR Do The Libs Listen To Him %26amp; Take His Advice?
Apparently Liberals listen to all of the conservative talk show hosts as they always know what they are saying!! That way, they can make up their rhetoric when they come on here and other boards! Without the government telling them what they need to know, they can't make any decisions on a subject!
I think the Oxycontins have given him a sixth sense. I think his listeners should follow suit and overdose on his sixth sense. Yes. Go to the light. Go to the light!
He predicts the obvious but pretends that only he knows but puts his own spin on reality. You can get he same information from PBS without the spin.
Aw man, I love ';Tom Sawyer'; and ';Subdivisions';....oh wait, you mean that ';other'; Rush...
He is smarter than anything the liberal left wing idiot loons and their 'FOR SALE MSM' stations can offer. Libs are clueless and simpletons.
Let's just say he can be an extremely insightful individual.
and after you wake up you find that you have Wet the Bed again, eh.....?
With Republican's loose grasp of reality, it is easy to make it look that way.
I can SEE the future
(I predict I am going to get drunk)
(or take some kind of pain pills)
It goes to show that Drug use does expand your consciousness.
It's like predicting what the media will do.
I hadn't thought of it like that. Makes me smile.
Libs following orders from Rush? Right on.
I think he might have swallowed a crystal ball. He is amazing.
he is able to do this because liberals are very predictable
Rush and all his listeners are mean idiots
Rush scares liberals... just like Palin does.
what was that you said, limbaaaaaaaaa
its okay your wool will grow back

What is the best advice you can give a new author?
I have been writing for a couple of years now, and sometimes it gets really discouraging. Writing a book is a huge mountain to climb. I know it has been done many times by others, and if they can do it then so can I. But in my times of doubt, what would you say to cheer me up?
thanks everyoneWhat is the best advice you can give a new author?
Have something new to say... yes, quite.
Which is it - best advice or something to cheer you up? The two aren't necessarily compatible. Assuming that it doesn't deter you that most books that are started are never finished, and most books that finished are never published, the best advice I can give is:
- Some writers plan every last detail before they start writing. Others make everything up as they go along. Most are somewhere in between. None of these is right or wrong, but you need to figure out which approach will work for you.
- Write something every day, even if it's only a sentence. This is the best preventative I've found for writer's block. By writing regularly, you keep the story fresh in your mind, and you're thinking about it when you're not writing. So when you sit down to write, you have some idea what you're going to say.
- Join a critique group. They will tell you what your friends and family are too afraid (or too ignorant) to tell you - what's wrong with your book and what you can do to fix it.
- Don't try to edit as you go along, because if you do, you'll never finish the book. Write the first draft, no matter how rough. You don't have to show it to anyone. If you change your mind about something major halfway through, make a note to fix it when you edit. Let the book sit for a while, to give yourself some mental distance from it. Then start editing.
- Set a daily or weekly target for how many words you're going to write. If you can stick to it, this gives you some idea of when you can expect to finish the book, which gives you a goal to aim for. It takes me six months to a year to do a first draft.
Good luck, and don't take it too seriously.What is the best advice you can give a new author?
Write something every day, be it a diary, a journal, an observation, a conversation overheard at breakfast, lunch, or dinner, an incident at a bus stop, a feeling, anything and everything you see, hear, smell, taste, touch, or feel.
You'll be amazed at what you have collected in your writings.
Then one day you will expand on one thought, incident, or feeling and off you'll go--writing like a madman.
Happens to me all the time.
