My coworker once when I asked him a hard question: "Don't make me lie to you."

I still think of that a lot and try to work it in when someone asks me an impossible question.

when someone asks me an impossible question.

I think that response actually works for the loaded question:

“Have you stopped beating your wife?“

Easy answer: No

Though someone can assume another answer it should be followed up by another question, such as: why not? Then you can explain: "Never started" for instance

Though the answer of "don't make me lie to you" is still a good one and prevents further questions
