Depends on wether it's the truth or "the truth"
Can't be bothered with the latter. The former is to be preferred, even if it's not always what I'd like to hear.
But such is life and all that.
(As for my question-question, my go-to question when I don't know tend to be "If you were a clam, what would you say to the mail man?" rather than the one about colours >->')
But then again, what is the truth?
