Annoying:

I can't
deal with clients at all at the moment... they are all smelly people who know nothing.

The consultant's strongest medicine
Give the client what he wants, not what he needs. This is very strong medicine and need only be administered once.

I quite like that site,
Don't think the sexual wording is needed though.

I had one convo like this...
Client: "I want it in our colours, red, yellow and blue. But its got to be soft on the eyes"
Me: "Ok, can I use colours like grays to make the writting easy to read and the colours stand out"
** I Show client a small example **
Client: "It isn't flashy enough, only use those colours that I said"
** Trys it with just use those colours **
Client: "My eyes !!! I can't read anything"
** Goes back to origonal **
Client: "That's much better, I like the way you changed the grays around and made the logo stand out more"
** 4 months later, website compleated **
Client: "I just need you to change the colours around to make it stand out more"

Just don't EVER tell them anything technical, EVER.
I once told a client I have to "FTP" something, suddenly EVERY SINGLE PROBLEM was to do with the FTP.
"The FTP must be broken again, I can't recive my hotmail"
