In the same idea, artist will give the clients multiple samples with one being terrible to help them select the better options.

Except sometimes they selected it and thus hilarious examples of modern art and corporate identity were brought to light

Or worse, they select it, but want some changes and end up blowing the budget, timeline, and good taste out of the water all at once.

That is how the actual talented people at Apple treated Steve Jobs. He was a fucking moron.

I have a feeling that's how his oncologist treated him, too. "Well, you could just eat a lot of fruit instead."

Okay, thank you for that one.

It's not often that a post on the internet makes me laugh out loud like that.

This doesn’t always work. Sometimes clients pick the terrible option. T_T

The scenario will play out in one of two ways:

  1. Client spots the duck. You remove the duck. Everybody is happy.
  2. Client does not spot the duck. You snuck a duck into their bullshit, you sneaky little fuck. Everybody is happy.

Hide-a-Duck sounds like a lawn ornament you put your spare key in.
