New contest. What is the most random advice - utterly unrelated to the problem - that an OP has received.

Just found a beauty today.

Do you mean "random," "unrelated," or "unhelpful" help? Or do we have to have three separate topics?

I guess the contest should be to find one that satifies all three of these major measures of uselessness.

But it gets funnier. Follow Frank's link again - apparently the random help actually WORKED!!!! (unless the OP has a really odd sense of humour)

It's just lucky you found it before me. I would have been far more scathing.

Still, @amul shouldn't waste money on lotto tickets; he's used up his quota of good luck for the year.
