Re: the dreaded \"describe your weaknesses\" interview question

Smithers: What would each of you say is your worst quality?
Man 1: Well, I <am> a workaholic.
Man 2: I push myself too hard.
Homer: Well, it takes me a long time to learn anything, I'm kind of a goof-off...
Smithers: Okay, that'll do.
Homer: ... a little stuff starts disappearing from the workplace...

I actually answered a question this way during an interview for a sales job I'd applied for out of college that I didn't really want. The interviewer chuckled at my answer. I don't think he realized it was a Simpsons reference, though.
Sadly, I ended up getting the job. Thankfully the company went bankrupt a few months later. Woohoo!
