You must have had some really weird instructors (and an even weirder mainframe  ).
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Typical of clients. Get used to it. It's going to happen far more often than you can put up with.

Next time you send a mock up clearly describe what you are sending, this is a mock up of the the custom error pages and you would not have a pissed off, embarrassed client.
If you did describe it correctly then you are running up against the standard reaction of a client, they hire you therefore they feel they have the right to yell at you.
Never underestimate the power of human stupidity

Yeah, we did describe it. Something along the lines of "please review the images that show the design of the custom error pages".
From what I know, a few hours later, both the client and the PM were laughing about it (kudos to the client for being able to be auto-sarcastic).

Ahh, machine code, a short and not very clear sequence of two instructions.
xxx0 FD F5 SDI 0xF5 - Subtract F5 from the accumulator, result back into the accumulator
xxx2 E6 SEX R6 - Make register 6 the stack pointer, best instruction ever
At least according to the CDP1802 data sheet.[^]

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

Now you're all just teasing me

Oh no. It is a good one.
We just want to giver others a chance to solve it too.
But after posting I realised that my post may be a too nearby clue.

OK...So that's a code for a named color called Old Lace, that used to be OldLace because no space allowed in names around programming (mostly)...

Nice one.

I upset my younger daughter yesterday while we were making kolbasz[^] and hurka[^] for our Christmas eatings. 15kg of kolbasz and 8kg of hurka...
I was humming the Peppa Pig theme, saying which member of the family each piece of meat came from and suggesting that Aunty could make a fair few pounds with tie-in products.
Apparently she wasn't impressed.
BTW Peppa was delicious!

There's a version of Peppa Pig in Germany as well...called "Peppa Wutz"
My 3-year-old son likes that, too. Too sad I have to tell him he can't watch it anymore 
Oink Oink!

...and afterwards we put the sausage in a "wurst case"

 23kg of sausage just for Christmas? Who you feeding? The 5000?

It's not just for Christmas, there's New Year as well.
Anyway, I like sausages.
