Bigging the question

In a press conference, when a reporter is called on to ask a question, and instead of asking one question, asks three to five more questions so quickly that the politician on camera can't stop her while remaining polite.

President: Ellen, your question?
Ellen: Yes, Mister President, what do you plan to do about North Korea and do you foresee good news on the economic forefront and what is the status in Afghanistan and are you really considering getting two more dogs and do you think the White Sox will win the pennant this year?
President (still smiling politely): Well, Ellen, I suppose that could be considered bigging the question.

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."

'Tis a known truth that Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs, Kill Bill, Jackie Brown, and Inglourious Basterds are quentinssential films for any meaningful understanding of and basis by which one should judge great cinema.

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?
ect ect ect
