“’What topic could you talk about for 30 minutes without preparation?’ I think it’s a genius question.” © theGrodon / Reddit“’What’s the best compliment you’ve ever received?’ That says a lot about what people think of themselves and what they tend to appreciate.” © howdidthishappen2850 / Reddit“’How would you describe the internet to a caveman?’ The answer to that question will show how people use the internet. For example, it can be said that it is a source of information or a way to connect people who are distant from each other. I know a man who said he wouldn’t explain anything to a caveman because he wouldn’t go back in time without an air conditioner.” © not_a_library / Reddit“Do you prefer day or night?” © featoutsider / Reddit“’What’s your favorite sandwich?’ It’s a question I often ask on social networking sites. A person is not often asked about sandwiches. So you usually don’t have a prepared answer. However, if you can respond quickly, it means you are able to think fast and ‘get into the game’. If you don’t respond instantly, it means you need time to formulate the answer. That is, you are probably a very serious person. And if you start lecturing about sandwiches being bad for your health or something, run away.” © shiguywhy / Reddit

“What do you have to do to be absolutely happy?” © Blabbermouth8 / Reddit“’What would you do in secret if you knew beforehand that no one would find out?’ An honest answer can reveal a lot about a person. And I’m surprised how many people answer honestly.” © jonndos / Reddit“Do you put a grocery cart in place after unloading groceries?” © Kn0wmad1c / Reddit “Actually, the shopping cart question is an important test of a person’s ability to manage their own life. Returning is simple and logical, and the right thing to do. And there are no situations, except in an emergency, where a person cannot put it in place. At the same time, if a person does not do this, he is not breaking the law, as it is not a crime. Thus, one can know a lot about one’s moral concepts. This is about doing the right thing without being forced. No one will punish you or fine you for not returning it; but you won’t gain anything by doing so. This simple act says a lot about a person’s principles.” © x_kwyjibo_x / Reddit

“A friend of mine works as a Human Resources executive for a large company. He came up with the question: ‘If you could choose between a million dollars and a small army of genetically engineered super chickens, what would you choose and why?’ Each employee should complete a week-long course to fully understand the amount of information that could be gained by asking this question. Let me clarify: once you ask, people will react one way or another. For example, if someone finds the question funny, it indicates that they have a sense of humor. If you think the issue is stupid or ridiculous, you may be taking yourself too seriously and therefore be a closed person. If you give an immediate answer, it means that you tend to make hasty and unconsidered decisions. By asking a lot of questions, it means that you are willing to learn and look at the general situation. It is also possible to know whether the person thinks creatively or practically. It also says a lot about purpose, what a person wants from work and life in general. If you say you prefer money, it’s important to explain why. Wanting to invest in something is not the same thing as wanting to buy a jet ski.” © TheTrueGoldenboy / Reddit“What is the most important human right to you?” © BackgroundDrider / Reddit“Which book would you like to live in?” © jealousofhiscat / Reddit

“My father-in-law had a job interview and almost got hired right away. But when they were showing the office, the company manager asked an unexpected question, which may have caused him to lose his job. The question was, ‘Which animal do you identify with?’ Sometime later, my father-in-law told me that he had panicked and chosen the bear because it was big. And the manager said something like, ‘It’s a very aggressive animal, so it’s probably not a good job for you.’ © Darth_dubj / Reddit“The favorite question I heard in an interview was, ‘What would you do if you came home and found a penguin in the freezer?’” © strongerone / Reddit“What was the best day of your life?” © mutantenzyme / Reddit“What do you like to eat or have for breakfast?” © BrainstormingNetwork / Reddit “A great question is, ‘What would you do if you won the lottery?’ My ex-boyfriend and I bought lottery tickets and talked about what we would do if we won. His answer humiliated me. He said that if he were married, he would divorce his wife and travel the world on a yacht surrounded by beautiful girls. It was a big sign for me.” © Unknown / Reddit

“What was the last thing that made you happy as a child?” © mntucker10 / Reddit“In the interview, ask your potential boss, ‘How many vacation and sick days did you take last year?’ A supervisor who doesn’t take vacation or sick leave and is proud of it is very bad. He goes to work when he’s sick, doesn’t rest on vacation, and expects his employees to follow suit. You will feel guilty every time you get sick or take a vacation.” © regular_gonzalez / Reddit “My girlfriend’s dad always asks the same question in interviews and it helps him figure out whether or not to hire someone. He says, ‘Why is the hatch round?’ The question is not getting the answer right, but whether a person is capable of critical thinking before saying they need help.” © SoftwareCycle / Reddit “One of the interesting questions I saw on a dating site was, ‘Do you think the concept/consequences of the post-apocalyptic world are interesting?’ The answer can show whether a person has abstract thinking and imagination. Most people on the site said they weren’t interested. However, I find the idea of ​​what the end of the world and the society to follow would be like quite interesting.” © SuiTobi / Reddit“I like the question: ‘What kind of superpower would you like to have?’ A girl I met in college had the best answer. She would say, ‘I want to fill things up’. When I looked at her wryly, she said, ‘Do you know how to fill my bank account with cash, fill my stomach with spaghetti, or fill my enemies’ bladders?’” © dwynalda3 / Reddit

“What was the last thing you did for the first time in your life?” © Tmadred / Reddit“’What’s your favorite color?’ If a person responds without hesitation, it means that they have probably thought about it earlier and it is a color they really like. Whenever I meet someone who talks about their favorite color, that color becomes a kind of ‘part of that person’ for me.” © cyanolov3 / Reddit“What is your favorite book?” © ogier_79 / Reddit“’Do you tip a waiter if the service was poor even though you know the cause of the problem was the restaurant and kitchen being overloaded?’ I will tell my experience. I live in a country where tips are part of the culture. I usually leave around 15-20%, but I reduce it in case of bad service. However, not in the situation I described above. I imagine the waiter had a lot of work and worried about all this.” © kingofthenorthwpg / Reddit“’What are you having for dinner tonight?’ It’s great to know what people like and what their culture is, because food is part of it and says a lot about how they live. If you buy cheap or expensive food, if you prefer simple or longer dishes and if you like to experiment or always go for the same options.” © ShiraCheshire / Reddit

“’Do you give money to a homeless person you see on the street?’ From my own experience, there are several answers to this question that can say a lot about a person’s behavior towards strangers in general. For example, some say, ‘You know, I’m not going to finance other people’s addiction.’ And then I begin to realize that these people also refer derogatorily to other people’s clothes, their weight, their appearance, and so on. On the other hand, there are those who say, ‘If I have money, I give it. I feel bad if I can’t help’. I have never heard offensive comments from people like that on other subjects. Maybe it’s a coincidence, but I don’t think it’s.” © Unknown / Reddit

“A few years ago, I had my first date with a girl I had met online. I found her very attractive and we had so much in common that she seemed perfect to me. At the cafe, the girl suggested a game: looking at strangers and imagining the stories of their lives. I found it curious and concluded that it would be fun, that we would have a topic to talk about. In the end, she managed to take all the fun out of the game, as all of her assumptions were cruel and without any justifiable reason. She seemed to project all of her personal problems onto others. For example, a guy was sitting alone (maybe just waiting for someone) and yet she referred to him as a friendless loser. I tried to put the game back on a more fun course; however, she was too caught up in her own anger. I lost all interest in her. I couldn’t imagine a second date with someone like that. However, I learned that such a simple and funny game can say a lot about a person and whether or not you can get along with them.” © -eDgAR- / Reddit
