Candlid

Candlid: adjective. Describing someone who is truthful and honest, while also having a short fuse. Perhaps the most famous example of a candlid person was the famous author Ernest Hemingway. Hemingway was well known for ubiquitously speaking his mind (which led to some rather unpleasant bar fights), but was also extremely short-tempered and easily set-off (which also led to some rather unpleasant bar fights).
