Ask a Yorkshire person a question and you'll get a straight answer. No beating around the bush, no telling you what you want to hear, just the ruthless truth with less trimmings than a plain old Yorkshire roast. Therefore, if you want to ask one of those questions that require the answer to be a well-meaning lie, such as "do my arms look fat in this sleeveless shirt?" or "do you think Jared Leto will make a good Joker?", don't ask a Yorkshire person. To be fair, it works both ways. Tell a Yorkshire person a lie and you'll be straight in the Wickerman that we keep burning on the outskirts of Halifax for outsiders who don't understand that honesty, however brutal, is always the best policy.
