Clown Suit

In some MMO's the collection of equipment that provides the best stats do not aesthetically match (so called Best in Slot, so while your character may be performing the best that they can with the equipment, they resemble a clown in the mismatched colors and styles of the armor that they're wearing.

With that last piece of shoulder armor that I got, I'm now wearing a clown suit.

But I'm not wearing a clown suit

A statement that serves as an acknowledgement among vendors that no matter how amazing a finished product is, the client will invariably find something to complain about or request a change that actually makes it worse. The client does so while wearing a metaphorical clown suit.

We just completed the client's new website, and it exceeded their specifications in every way. I think it turned out great, but I'm not wearing a clown suit.
