We’ve all been given advice at one point or another in our lives - a piece of information that helps us make a decision, understand what really matters, or the actions we should take to change our course of life. Chances are, the advice you were given truly did help you at that time, but sometimes advice can get a little bit… off. And the more off it is, the more suitable it starts to be for our funny bad advice list! Yup, you absolutely shouldn’t take the bits of bad advice listed here seriously, but rather treat them as a means of pure entertainment (except for maybe the instances you want to practice reverse psychology). 

You can be absolutely sure that these bits of funny advice will cover every topic that might possibly happen in life. There’s the worst advice for cheering someone up, disastrous encouragement on making tough decisions, funny bad relationship advice (oh, we love those!), and everything in between for when you want to ruin someone’s day. Okay, make it laugh at the silliness instead of ruining someone’s day. Sounds far better, doesn’t it? 

As we’ve already stated, you should absolutely take these bits of bad funny advice in a very tongue-in-cheek manner, for they are no good to help you to get to that much revered Hakuna Matata point in life. That said, you should absolutely check them out anyway! And once you are done, rank these bad advice quotes the way you like, and share this article with your friends!

I have to disagree. Not necessarily the best argument against a gym membership but an enlistment in the military isn't the worst idea in the world. They'll also feed you, give you a bed, clothes to wear, life insurance and a paycheck. Ok, the pay ain't the greatest, but I truly believe the benefits are worth it. And with all this unemployment, I would think more people would be willing to do what it takes for a paycheck. Give me a reason not to enlist and I could probably give you a reason to enlist to counterbalance it. (11 years active duty, a trained heavy equipment mechanic and never saw combat. I volunteered to go to Afghanistan after 9-11 and found out I was already on orders to Korea. FYI: I loved Korea!)
