When you go to interview for a job, one trick question that is often asked is "What would you say is your worst characteristic?" The manuals say that under no circumstances are you supposed to actually say anything bad about yourself. According to the manual, you're supposed to take a virtue and present it as a flaw, like, "Well, sometimes I get impatient when results don't come quickly enough."
But if you didn't really need the job, and wanted to have some fun with the interviewer, how could you answer that question to really blow the interview and freak the interviewer out? ;)
Let me start: "Well, I'm not very trustworthy...."
Or how about: "It's a mystery to me. Where's your cafeteria?"

First- Point to the bosses mug, lift it up and ask can you keep it, when he says no- just say ' It's just I like to take things sometimes, but I hate it when I get in trouble' - save that one for a big department store that's real expensive. And when you walk out after rejection- if the boss is still with you eye up the expensive jewellry.
Second- "I can be a bit impatient with the customers sometimes- I was brought up on assault once- but I told the old lady to get out of the queue if she had a zimmerframe, she didn't do it and it took her like 20 seconds to get to the counter with those 20 pound weights- so I just hit her a little- not very much!"

How about:
"Well, if you want to get really technical, I'm on escapee status from the state mental asylum, but the way I look at it is that I released myself on my own recognizance."

"My worst characteristic? Well, if you really must know...I'm crazy. But no one else has to know that now do they? As a matter of fact, you don't either...forget I said that..."
Then run out raving mad when he rejects you...huff and puff etc.

"I have a tendency to skip work a lot. You have a good skipping policy, don't you??"
