25 Things Only People From Yorkshire Will Understand
12. Outsiders Mistaking Your Accent With A Mancunian Accent
No no no no NO. There is a HUGE difference, morons. If there's one thing that unites everyone in Yorkshire, it's that we hate being called ANYTHING but Yorkshire. Especially Mancunian... and we won't even mention the L word again.
11. Floods Will Not Stop You From Having A Pint
Just like good old Sean Bean stopping for another drink after being stabbed, the Yorkshire clan are not afraid of a little bit of muck or watter. Once thing's for sure, we DEFINITELY won't be letting it stop us from having a nice pint. The Kings Arms in York are more than used flooding - it usually happens about four times a year, not that they let it affect business. Their military flood procedures mean they're back up and running in no time at all, moving customers to a room at the back and only forcing them out when the water starts to get near the back door. Back int' day, they used to allow regulars to stay, chugging away on upturned crates. It makes your chest swell with pride, doesn't it?
10. Our Post Boxes Are Better Than Your Post Boxes
You'll be pressed to not come across one of these beauties in Yorkshire. Where else in the world has golden postboxes? We'll tell you where - HEAVEN. God's Own County strikes again.
9. Having To "Tone Down" So People Understand You
The beauty of the Yorkshire language, is how smoothly words like 'bugger lugs', and 'ninkenpoop' can roll off the tongue. How come Siri doesn't come with a Yorkshire option? Tis the superior language, after all! If an outsider stops for directions and you tell them to go down't road then left at the chippy, you might as well be talking Klingon. Before you think about toning down your Yorkshire twang, though, here's something to think about: The Yorkshire accent beat the Queen's English in a study into dialect and perceived intelligence: those with a Yorkshire twang were the most likely to be considered ""wise, trustworthy, honest and straightforward", while the Brummies were seen as the most stupid. Yes!
8. Everyone Else Is Going Abroad, You're Just Happy With A Trip To Scarborough
Ah, Scarborough. England's first seaside resort and home to many a childhood memory. Who needs a trip to Tenerife, when you can go home with that Scarborough glow? For another glorious day out nothing is more exotic than Skipton Market, the "gateway to the Dales". One thing is fer sure, we're NOT going to Blackpool.
