Silly questions have been around for a while. A century ago the comic songwriter, W S Gilbert, entered the US despite answering the question “Is it your intention to overthrow the government of the United States by force?” with the words “Sole purpose of visit”. His application for a visa was not rejected because there was no procedure for dealing with people who answered yes.

Now they just check your passport to make sure that you don't have islam or mohammad anywhere in your name.

To which my friend replied (with his typically Kiwi sense of humor) "Oh gosh, no.  Do you still need one of those to move here?"

Paul got his visa but reported that the inspector was not amused.

The family was going through airport customs and, while filling out a form, Groucho listed his name as "Julius Henry Marx" and his occupation as "smuggler". Thereafter, chaos ensued.

it closes with a question about whether you can be considered a a person of good character...

I declared the jewelery ... mind you it multiplied by the return trip
