Why would I tell you my weaknesses?!

I may actually say this (title) the next time i’m asked in an interview. i just dont understand the thinking. is it: a) you actually think i’m going to be honest? b) you want to see how i navigate this ridiculous question, either because your a sadist or maybe answering impossible questions is part of the job c) you want to make sure im not “overconfident” (“i dont have any weaknesses!”) i have so many opportunities ALREADY to fuck up an interview, i cant believe this question gets asked so frequently. all i hear is “Would you give us a reason we shouldn’t hire you?” god i hate this world. also im from the US is this question common in other countries?
