For me it was "buy high quality pillow" because you sleep for one thrid of a day etc. I needed a new pillow anyway so I came to the store and bought the best they had. And it was ... ok. Like it's a fine pillow but my sleeping haven't improved really, it's basically the same. So I was disapointed :(

So, which life pro tip disappointed you?

Especially frustrating if you are a healthcare professional. It is astonishing how many people give out bad medical advice here,on Reddit, Facebook,etc. with the notion of "well it worked for me".

Often it didn't even work.

I mean, yes, I know, it is a way for people to recover control after they "lost it" to their body. But at least don't brag about it on the internet and even more don't start a fight with someone who clearly has more knowledge due to professional training and years of experience.

I've seen people fight the world leading specialist team on Reddit before.....
