Sometimes, I think that if you don't know WTF is going on, you should just shut the hell up.
Example, someone tells you something that is of great importance to him. He may be asking you for your opinion, or maybe he just wants to share his plans/experience.
If you have no idea what is going on, then you could say something like...
"I'm not sure about this. Maybe you should ask someone that's more familiar with this"
or simply just encourage & support him. Or at the very least, just listen to what he have to say and keep quiet.
Don't make negative comments or be a wet blanket. Don't say things like "You will fail" or "There is no way that could happen" or "I will definitely stop you from doing that."
It's really hurtful for the person, especially when that matter is important to him but irrelevant to you.
