I like to collect questions that imply the wrong answer. Many of them are quite well known, for example:
What animal are the Canary Islands named after?
How long did the Hundred Years War last?
How long is Ninety Mile Beach?

Here's one that may not be new, but was new to me: Which is heavier, a pound of gold or a pound of feathers?

*grin* Love it.

For questions of that sort, you would love QI with Stephen Fry. I recommend you watch, if you haven't already.

And at that point all of QI is available too :)

Like these?

laputain put one of these questions into each category in the quiz we ran recently, and made up a couple for those categories that weren't covered by the Easiest Test. I can't remember them all off the top of my head, but laputain'll have them written down somewhere.
