We will only pay once we are in the top 5 for the keyword ($100 max bid)
And
Please dont bid and tell it will take 3 - 6 months to get a good rank as a minimum time scale.
$1 articles, should be original work, should pass the copyscape test, no grammatical or spelling errors . . . .
$1 article, what is going to be in it? Why is it written, just for SEO purposes? I wouldn't in a lifetime want to have one of those articles on my sites.
EB, this doesn't bit yours.

IDIOTS! Ignore them Essex, I'll give you $120 :)
Many, do it to negotiate. They think they're so smart: by saying $100 for something worth $2500 they think that the price will be in the middle somewhere. I noticed that with domain names. Now, if they try that, all their subsequent offers are ignored (I warn them first and they still try it)

I can guarantee a No.1 position for the word "galahooogeldoo" within a few days...
Ok. Now that I posted it on webmasterworld: A no. 2 position.
This is pretty much a standard opening for 75% of the customers who darken my phone with their calls . . . . .
why are manhole covers are round
Because it's the only shape with equal dimensions when rotated-and as a result, can't fall into the hole it's covering.
I never fail to learn something here! ;-) In England we take no such precautions, they are almost always square and made of two triangular sections. That's my contribution to the community.
As for unrealistic expectations:
"Can you make the logo bigger?" - not if you want the site to look good.
Unrealistic expectations you've come across
The majority of SEO clients have unrealistic expectations, life is soooooo much sweeter once you fire them :)

an equilateral triangle won't fall into the hole...

Actually, that's not quite right.
It's true that an equilateral triangle can't fall edge-first through the exact middle of a congruent triangular hole, it most definitely can fit (assuming the cover isn't ridiculously thick). This can't happen at all with a circular cover.
Picture it this way: the longest point-to-point distance in an equilateral triangle is along any of its sides. If you hold the cover vertically (i.e. so that the faces of the cover are perpendicular to the ground) above and parallel to one of the edges of the hole, and rotated to any angle such that none of the edges of the triangular cover is parallel to the ground, then the edge presented to the hole will be smaller than the edge of the opening. Let go and it'll fall right through.
It's also probably possible (again, limited by the thickness of the cover and the size of the hole), by holding the cover vertically over the hole with one edge perpendicular to the ground, the corner opposite that edge over the corner of the hole, and the whole cover rotated with respect to the hole to almost any angle such that the perpendicular edge of the cover is not positioned over the midpoint of the edge of the hole opposite the already-mentioned corner.
In other words, with one corner of the cover positioned above one corner of the hole, it gets easier to drop the cover through the hole the closer the faces of the cover come to getting parallel with any of the edges of the hole, and the closer any of the cover's edges gets to vertical.

I'm thinking I probably oughta write that down somewhere.
I'm not sure that I follow what you are describing correctly, however you seem to be sure and describe it in such a concise and confident manor I will presume you are correct.
You must have no problem convincing clients to your way of thinking. ;-)
