Things I found funny!

Some Design situations that makes me funny

1. The “Inspiration” Presentation

Client: “I want it to feel like this Pinterest board.”
You: “You mean the one with 50 different styles?”
Client: “Yes! All of them!”
You: “So, a design buffet? I’ll get the tongs!”


2. The “Can You Make It Look More Expensive?” Request

Client: “Can we make this look more premium?”
You: “Sure! Would you like that in gold leaf or just a dash of pixie dust?”
Client: “Both!”
You: “Alright, let me just call my fairy godmother.”


3. The Font Crisis

Client: “Can we use a different font?”
You: “Sure! Which one?”
Client: “Something that pops!”
You: “Comic Sans it is!”
Client: “No, no, not that! Anything but that!”
You: “So, I’ll put away my weapons of mass distraction…”


4. The Misunderstood Mood Board

You present your mood board.
Client: “Why are there so many colors?”
You: “Because it’s a mood board!”
Client: “I thought it was supposed to be moody!”
You: “I see we’re aiming for a somber rainbow.”


5. The Great Logo Debate

Client: “Can we try a different logo?”
You: “You mean the one we just finalized last week?”
Client: “Yes, I had a vision!”
You: “Is it a vision or a mirage? Because I can’t see it.”


6. The Meeting That Goes Nowhere

You: “So, what’s the next step?”
Client: “Let’s discuss it at the next meeting.”
You: “How about we just skip ahead to ‘approved’?”
Client: “I like that idea!”
You: “Great! Let me print the confetti!”


7. The Unspecified Deadline

Client: “When can we have this?”
You: “What’s the deadline?”
Client: “Soon!”
You: “Soon… like tomorrow soon or ‘I just drank my morning coffee’ soon?”


8. The “Can You Just” Syndrome

Client: “Can you just make it bigger?”
You: “Sure! How about billboard-sized?”
Client: “No, I meant slightly bigger!”
You: “Right, so ‘big’ is subjective! Got it!”


9. The Design Time Warp

After working on a project for weeks, you realize:
You: “Wait, how did we go from three concepts to 50?”
Team Member: “It’s the design time warp! We lost track of time.”
You: “Great, I’ll set my flux capacitor to ‘urgent’!”


10. The “Last-Minute Inspiration”

Client: “I had an idea last night!”
You: “Great! Let’s hear it!”
Client: “What if we scrap everything and start fresh?”
You: “Fantastic! I’ll just grab my time machine and… oh wait, I left it in the other dimension!”


Conclusion: Finding Humor in the Chaos

As I read through these hilarious situations, I couldn’t help but laugh! Each moment is a reminder that in the unpredictable world of design, laughter often saves the day. So let’s continue to embrace the chaos and find joy in the quirks of our creative journeys. Here’s to all the designers—may we keep laughing through every project!
