    Your users are stupid. Really stupid. You can't believe how stupid they are, they constantly forget how to do simplest things and often make dumb mistakes with your applications. You never consider maybe it's your application that’s stupid because you're incapable of writing decent software.

Of course they are stupid. That's why you have to be smart for them. You shouldn't blame the customer for being stupid, you should accept it from day one, and design your UI around it.
