You Know What You Should Do...

I guess that it might just be in our nature as people, but one thing that seems to bother me is when someone tries to should you to death. What do I mean by that? It's something that everyone has experienced in one form or another. Either you are predominately someone who is doing the shoulding or you are the one getting shoulded. To be honest, everyone falls into both categories at one point or another, but we are usually in one most of the time.
So what does it mean? Well, say you are in any situation, it doesn't matter, really. What happens is you relay it to a friend, a family member, coworker, group of people, or the local hobo. This person again, doesn't matter and is interchangeable. You tell them of your woes and then their reply goes something like this ..."You know what you should do? You should do this (insert some dumb ass thing that is very easy for them to suggest since they are not in the situation at hand)"...
How many times has this happened to you? How many times have you done it? I would say a lot in both counts.  I'm not really sure how or why this happens, but it is rather lame since this person who plays a member of The View in your life usually just spots off simple here say answers and when you explain by saying something like this "Yeah but, it's not that easy." They just stare at you like you are a deaf mute. I'm not sure why this happens but, it does and it gets rather annoying rather quickly. If anything it just adds to your problems. God damn people.
