What are the worst words in photography?

The post above about a hot chick reminds me of a rather embarrassing episode

Hot chick - "is that a Leica?"
Me - " er, no it's a fuji x10 "
Hot chick - " oh..."
Me ( inexplicably ) - " I have a Leica at home "
Her - " right "

...not my finest moment
 
"Fujifilm Neopan Presto 400 will be discontinued"
"...we don't have a budget but..."
"It's ok, we can just photoshop that in" [speaking about sunlight after a client arrives 2 hours late and the sun has already gone down]
 
Great to see this thread active again. There are some gems here.

"Oh, so that's it then is it? Yeah, I've heard about this camera of yours."

"Full frame? Looks too small to be that." [Do they know we are talking digital? Are they thinking maybe of medium or large format, film.....??]
 
"Wow that's a great camera you have. Will you photograph our wedding ?
For $200 ? "

and, after the wedding . . .

"You made me look so fat !!"
 
After developing two 135 rolls completely transparent. "Didn't you know that when Ilfosol3 losses the colour means is no more active?"
Aaargh
