Matthew Inman of The Oatmeal doesn't mince words in his cartoon rants, and this set on stupid job interview questions is no exception.
To this question, I once answered "My inability to answer questions like that", and I then challenged the value of the question. I was subsequently offered the job.

Until then, I'll just stick with "Heroine".
"Who is you hero?"
"Gahndi."

This, for a telemarketing firm. I think I said green, for no particular reason, and spouted some BS about why. I needed a job badly.
As for what a priest would say about me, I'm pretty sure it'd be "Who?"
Another interview they asked if I had ever taken a bribe. Seriously, who would answer yes to that?
Other classics include:
Do you fear tall women?
Have you tortured small animals?
What is your favorite handgun?
What would a priest say about you?
So it's probably just as well I never told him about pistol-whipping chihuahuas owned by women over six-feet tall, using my Glock 23.
