Do You Hit On 12 In Blackjack

Ok, so I saw another post on this board about other players getting there panties in a bunch when you hit a 12 against a 2 or 3. I've always hit those! ALWAYS. And many people get all ticked off.
I don't really care that they get ticked off, but I need a sanity check here: Is there an official strategy that I don't know about that says to 'don't hit 12 against a dealer's 2 or 3?? Same goes for the hitting the A,7 against the dealer's 10. Is there any strategy that says to never do this?
I'm trying to give these dolts SOME benefit to the doubt here by thinking they know something I don't. But I wanted to check with you guys.
Thanks!
