Smile and nod they will go away. I do it and they eventually run out of things to say and feel awkward for starting up. Now, I am a warm, people person, but unsolicited, uncalled for advice really gets to me so instead of one-lining them I just smile and nod as if I care. If they can’t come up with conversation topics that don’t involve being unsolicitous and uncalled for then I have no need or interest in talking with them.
Oh did I mention that I babysit?
