True story. Seattle area. 90’s. Lotsa chatter because MSFT used strange questions to test applicants. Friend was inventing similar questions for our company.

Asked me two:

1) “2000 years from now what would aliens notice?”

Easy answer: Highways.

2) “What is the greatest achievement of western civilization?”

Easy answer: “a united states marine”.

The first one made him think but agreed. The second one floored him.

I mean it.
