People Share the Weirdest Getting To Know You Questions They've Heard

[rebelmouse-image 18357343 is_animated_gif= dam=1 expand=1]

*"Could you repeat that?" "Pardon?" Those are just a few of the responses that are kneejerk when we're faced with the oddest questions imaginable. Sometimes we're all left in disbelief at the things that fall out of people's mouths. We all might think we're being original or interesting at the initial thought but most of the time we're just being weird. A first impression is important so don't waste it with an introductory question that will leave your audience baffled. *

My new personal favorite:"On an average day, how many pigeons do you think you could reasonably carry?" It's so far out of left field, it throws people off and gets them thinking. They also think you're weird for asking it, but it's worth it for the random answers you'll get.

TALK TO ME....

[rebelmouse-image 18357345 is_animated_gif= dam=1 expand=1]

"What are you proud of, but never have an excuse to talk about?" That gets people to talk about things they've done and just want to bring up, so you see what's important to them.

"What conspiracy theories do you believe?"

SOMETHING'S ROTTEN...

[rebelmouse-image 18979521 is_animated_gif= dam=1 expand=1]

I like to ask "What's your favorite smell?" you learn a lot about a person.

I'D RATHER CHINESE....

When I was managing and interviewing people for a higher end pizza restaurant we had to ask every person
