I still remember a Google interviewer where the guy jumped from being almost BDSMlike in the attention to detail he paid to my CV after I explained the CIA triad, then jumped to getting ornery when I pointed out my mind is weirdly visual, and I can remember the textbook - the very next page had a paragraph on nonrepudiation.
