The interviewer seemed annoyed that I didn't have a statement explaining why I hadn't provided my tax returns for the past 3 years. I guess I'd thought it would be obvious, since I'd reported no income for those years. In retrospect, it was absurd to hope a person would be able to glace over that big pile of papers, absorb, and cross-reference all the information instantly, at 8 am. Then the interviewer gave her a series of specific questions regarding my finances, on which she seemed to do okay, but not great on.
She was then asked a series of questions about me and how well she knew me, which is unusual for a K-1 interview, but common for a CR-1 (spouse) interview. She recognized this, and started to get flustered. She missed a few questions, about names of my friends, who we haven't talked about much, and where I went to university. The university question was probably my fault. Perhaps I was very sleepy, but at some point, I told her that I'd gone to the University of Arizona. I quickly corrected myself, but I know when I hear two conflicting statements it is very likely that I will not remember which is correct, and quite possible my brain will toss the entire conversation out my ear.
The interviewer started looking at our "Evidence of Relationship", and looked through our pictures. We had two pages, each with 4 pictures, with names, places, and dates. He asked if she had more, and she said, oh yes, many, on her phone, then realized that of course security had taken her phone when she entered the consulate. I suspect interviewers ask this question just to have fun 
The interview was probably quite a bit longer and more painful than most, but that was expected with an "assets only" I-134.
Result: Approved, no RFE
