clown question

A inappropriate question, typically dripping with either intentional or moronic douchebaggery, and usually posed by an actual douchebag.

A clown question is best met with the following retort, coined by Bryce Harper of the Washington Nationals on June 13, 2012, in response to a clown question posed by a Toronto TV reporter: "That's a clown question, bro."
Toronto TV Reporter to Bryce Harper (a 19-year-old Major League Baseball rooking phenom whose Mormon religion forbids the drinking of alcohol and, moreover, whose age makes it illegal to drink in the United States): "You got a favorite beer?"

Bryce Harper: "I'm not answering that. That's a clown question, bro."

Don’t ask questions you don’t want the answers to

It’s usually the answer you don’t want to know.

Another form of Tom Krause’s quote
“never ask questions you don’t want to know the answers to” but more suited for using in conversation.

Often used by cheating girlfriends and wives after hoeing around.
Mark: Hey babe, where were you last night?
Susan: Don’t ask questions you don’t want the answers to

Mark: Sucked off your ex, didn’t you?

the question game

The 'offical' name for the game in which two people play normally while flirting to "get to know each other better." The rules depend on the players and are usually made up as the game goes along, but the basic jist is that the players take turns asking questions and you can't lie. The questions are usually sexual in nature and the game is a tool used to measure the person's skanky-ness.
Mark: Want to play the question game?
Jess: Sure.
Mark: So...how far have you gone?
