What's the difference between what people, or things created by people,say and what they mean? Why is that difference often so great?

According to Macrumors, a man who returned his iPad 2 to Apple with a note saying "Wife said no." ended up with it being returned to him with a note from Apple, "Apple said Yes."
Apparently the apple employees were amused at the reason, and the higher ups at Apple decided to have some fun, and get some great PR along the way.
