/r/shittyadvice
A community for giving and getting the worst advice possible.
A place for questions of bad advice.
Again, a place to ask questions and then presumably receive shitty advice.
It's a two step process outlined as follows:
Somebody asks a question or requests advice on a topic.
The community responds with advice which is generally considered less than ideal.
If you're looking to just jump straight to Step 2 right there and then engage in flippant ruminations upon that topic then there is a more appropriate apparatus for these exercises.
If a post is stuck in the spam filter, please message the mods.

Good day, colleagues,
I will not be disclosing my name, except to say that I am a well-known figure in diplomatic circles and am often invited to speak on geopolitics and international relations. My perspective has been shaped by years of observing global trends and interacting with various experts in the field, which has allowed me to gain a deeper understanding of the critical issues of our era. While I always look forward to sharing my insights and learning from diverse viewpoints such as those found in this forum, I often find myself presenting my case with further ado instead of proceeding without further ado.
I have been told that I use quite a bit of ado instead of going straight to the facts—if I may be so bold as to be frank. I feel that the amount of ado I preface my presentations with may alienate my audience, or at least part of it. Part of the audience, I mean—not part of the ado. Or could it be that it is, in fact, part of the ado itself that is at fault while the other part is just fine? In that case, it is challenging to determine which elements of my ado are most relevant and which might be better omitted.
Even though I usually go on to explain matters of the utmost importance and urgency, my behavior regarding the amount of ado I utilize clearly jeopardizes my ability to present complex information in an engaging way. I hope you can agree with that. I would hence be very grateful for any suggestions on how to refine my approach to align with current expectations, in a time when large amounts of ado are frowned upon or even booed.
edit: I have six presentations scheduled this month on a range of topics, including the war in Ukraine, Gaza, Lebanon, Syria, Spain, and the use of large language models by the Foreign Intelligence Service of the Russian Federation.
He was arrested and put into horny jail for being too horny. What should I do?
My question keeps being deleted from various subs, hopefully I am finally on a good place.
I want to run future telling business but I am worried for being labelled as scammer and further implications. How are therapist doing it? Degree thing? I would need degree for my future cookies stuff and I would be fine?
So did I have menopause when I was little too young to have it . What do I do if I get hot in the winter time I can't walk around the house naked do I go outside naked . These hot flashes get to me I barely wear pants I wear shorts should I wear underwear ?
I guess we're smarter here in the United States because I'm looking out my window and it's clearly daytime. The sun is out and it's 4pm. My friend in China says it's late at night and tried saying something about the earth's orbit. I think he's making excuses for not knowing day from night 😂 how can someone be so dum that they can't see it's daylight out? How can I help my Chinese friend be smurter?
He tried saying it was only 5. He pays a few hundred a month for this school and I told him he pays too much and should only pay them a few thousand instead. He went to this current school and another one so that's a total of 35 schools that have failed him.
How can I maximize my “good”? My mommy says it’s important to give back during the holidays.
So my friends and I were unable to do our Friendsgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s celebrations. (How? You may ask. Well we’re adults and we all got a lot of stuff on our plates that unfortunately, aren’t edible holiday dishes, but rather adult life problems.)
So to remedy this world ending problem and to prevent doomsday, I need your help combining all three holidays into a single unholy dish. Something that should still be edible, but unpleasant to think about when mentioning it in passing conversation to your coworkers. Something that honestly should send you directly to HR for the mere mention of creating something so holly-jolly that it is toxic to human beings.
So I ask you Reddit, what should I make?
I fought in 2 wars going to school on girl bill. How to deal with my coworker who thinks he is the dishwasher supervisor manager. Dude is a prissy dude I'm just doing this job part time to supplement my income while I go to school. He tries to make me stay till exactly 210 because he wanted it that way.
I have a lot shit on my plate what do you do if have a hard time sleeping at night? Do I stay up for 20 years or 100 days . Look at the wall till I fall asleep ?
I've already sent off numerous letters, but they were sent to random addresses(no responses yet, I'm losing hope)
I would have thought they'd adapt to the modern age, but I've checked Amazon, and nothing.
Also how much do they cost, and how much for care and maintenance?
Thanks in advance
Update: After consulting with my accountant and legal team I have established a few things
1- it is apparently wrong to own other people on both moral a legal grounds
2- I can not afford an accountant, a legal team or a mail-order bride
3- I might be in the market for a used fleshlight, blow-up doll, or a discounted alien(illegal or extra-terrestrial)
Should you have a plumber come to your house and have them unclog the toilet and have plumber send the bill to the visitor who clog up your toilet. We had people clog up our toilet we was so mad and the house smells like poop . One time I clog the toilet up my mom was mad lol .
No matter how many times I try, I can never get them to work! ☹️
I tried that one about the wine and the water on my baby daughter's bottle, and nothing! 😭
I promised 12 local amputees in my neighbourhood I could heal them, and when I tried it didn't work either! 😰
Then they started slowly hobbling down the street after me with their old service weapons, so I said "Thou shall not kill" and they still managed to slice off my limbs and connect them to themselves! 😡
Now I'm limbless and without the money I scammed them for, because I paid it all to the church to see if I could renew my Holy spell subscription.
Any advice to get it to work? I keep trying to ring up God on the ol' prayer network but he keeps calling me a doofus 🙄
In your opinion/experience, what are the best jobs someone can do under the influence
What would you do?
Reddit was down for a few hours (and it's still slow). How did it affect your life? How has this neglect of the community likely destroyed entire families and many lives? Share your story here, you are not alone. ✊

Should I answer him? I''m afraid the caller might not be an honest individual.
