Lorem Ipsum

I had a client review a design, and all the textarea’s were filled with ‘Lorem Ipsum’. Reply: It looks good, but we don’t understand it.

Me: What don’t you understand?

Reply:  The text. What language is that anyway?

Me: It doesn’t mean anything, it’s to fill up the textareas. Just focus on the design, not the content.

Reply, after a day or two: Could you please type the text from our brochure in there, we can’t review the site in a foreign language.

I’ve had this conversation with someone before. I won’t say who. Some of you may be able to guess. That is all.
