Thanks for playing along. This is a perfect example of why pointless trivia does well in an interview. It reveals the psuedo-intellectuals who will overanalyze the situation in an effort to try and sound intelligent. Exactly who you want to steer clear of.

The candidate you actually want to hire will respond with something to effect of "That's dumb. Let's instead talk about X, which will be a far more appealing topic to both of us."

Well.. most people generally don’t like working with annoying, self-entitled know-it-alls. So I guess the question serves its purpose if it filters such people out.

I wouldn’t be reading your comments if I wanted to stay clear of stuff like that, would I?
