Polite: “Thanks.”

Less polite: “Thank you for your feedback.”

My fave: “UNSUBSCRIBE”

    Be careful whose advice you buy, but, be patient with those who supply it. Advice is a form of nostalgia, dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth.

    Depends how good the advice is.

    I generally listen and compare it to what I do.

    If it's useless, I silently feel smug and superior. If there's something good, then I try to take it onboard.

    One of:

    • Thank you and if good learn somthing. Asquestions.

    • I know, if I know this.

    • I do not want to hear it, if it is repetative garbage.

    First you should ask yourself why you would not want advice.

    Which results in: a) accept and implement advice OR b) prove the advice wrong
