I find it astonishing how many people's snarky responses here would actually be astonishingly useful to an interviewer. Not as a disqualifier even. The person who wants to spend all day building robots to feed the poor, and the person who wants to spend all day writing are probably not going to both be happy in the same job. And the person who "I just want to be a developer, I love doing business development" is going to always tell you yes regardless of the situation. And the person who sits and thinks for 5 minutes ... probably needed some more encouragement from the interviewer.

My favourite sport is rugby union, my second favourite sport is swimming. These sports are very different and yet I am passionate about them both. Rugby league and American football don't interest me at all despite being much closer to my favourite sport than swimming.
