Here's another one:
Client (reviewing a proof): I don't like it, I'm not sure why. It lacks something. Can you re-do it?
Designer: What exactly don't you like about it?
Client: I don't really know, but I'm sure you'll come up with something.

Working for a small printer, I heard too many of these! Here are a couple of personal favorites:

- "Can you make the logo bigger? I paid a lot of money for that logo, and I want to make sure everyone sees it".

- (From one of our sales reps): "Hey, someone sent a response card back to me from that sales brochure you designed. What should I do with it?"

- (Standard company tour excerpt): "This is our graphics department. This is the only department that uses Macs." (God's honest truth, that was from the CEO!)

I have many many many more, if you need to be depressed.
