All fair points. We've all been at that table when it happens. However, my point to you is never let the project or comps get to a point where the client feels the need to make changes that in your professional (key word) opinion weaken the overall product. It's our job to pull all of that input out of them before

I use a creative questionnaire customized to the client depending on the project and scope of work. The feedback isn't necessarily as important as is introducing the project stakeholders / client into the creative process and engaging their input. Many clients know they like the way certain things look, they just have

Right, but if you take that approach, it's really unfair to be critical of your client's opinions, call them idiots or infer they have a 'big head' – because by you're own admission and by completing the work unabated they are essentially driving the process and are the creative / art director.

Instead you may find it

Agreed, (many) clients can be that way. Which is why a good designer only hires clients which are open minded, trusting or those willing to digest and understand the entirety of the design process. You wouldn't question an engineer building a rocket or a doctor doing surgery – a design professional with any merit is

If you're a designer and you're letting your clients pick the colors you're doing it wrong.

Ah, youth.

What's Kinja doing to images?

I'm all-in on their meatball sub. Add some cilantro and red onion and it makes for a damn fine $5 sandwich.

Given you're one of those smug sons of bitches who answers their own questions I'm reluctant to respond. In simplest terms, how do you beat someone without scoring? Isn't that dominance? How more dominant can one be at their job that you essentially can't do it any better? Can you say the same thing about Lebron?

"What?"

8. Make sure USMNT World Cup games are scheduled and played at convenient times for Americans. Mid-day PST to EST game times that interrupt work hours are perfectly acceptable; as are primetime weekend slots. If this requires forcing the USMNT and their opponent to take the field at 4am local time, so be it.

I hope they didn't remove the price tags.

Warning, DO NOT watch the IGN review. Spoilers abound. Idiots.

Landis was also the writer for Chronicle and responsible for the rather epic and cameo packed, Death And Return of Superman:

I remember being 17 and working in a hardware store, creeping into the stock room to watch the game on old rabbit-eared TV. I just relived all 20 K's at MLB.com. The fastball he threw for his 14th is insane, and third strike for his 19th is mind boggling.

Well, there was a lot of water...
