Re: Retarded interview question
All jokes aside I think these are very good questions. They put the person on the spot where they have to think quick to come up with a decent answer. Quiestions like what are your good characteristics, etc. are memorized before the interview so they really dont tell much about the candidate.

Re: Retarded interview question
For the animal question:
"I would be a horse, because bitches are always riding me....Oh also, because I have a big dick..... ......So did I get the job?"

Re: Retarded interview question
How about you answer this question the way politicians answer questions?
Q: If you were a plant, what kind of plant would you be? A: Well, if there's a plant that believes in working tirelessly for his employer, that's detail- and goal-oriented, punctual, well-read, and intelligent, THAT'S the kind of plant I'd be.

It's been shown as an unreliable hiring method anyway.

Re: Retarded interview question
when a law firm interviews you, you've already been placed into one of three categories.
A) Based on his resume we want him. If he doesn't drool, he's in. B) Based on his resume, we'd probably take him. If he can handle a 20 minute conversation, he's in. C) Based on his resume, he's very borderline. If he really seems smart or charismatic, maybe we'll overlook the lower GPA. None of this involves answering questions about plants. I'd probably say "I don't know a palm tree I guess cause I love the beach. Why, are you looking to hire a specific plant type?"
