"And that's such a surprise? I was born cynical." Really, he was, and he's only gotten worse as the years have gone on. At least now it seems he's forgotten about wanting to fight with Bjorn for the moment.
"You chose to be cynical," Bjorn argues. He doesn't believe that anyone can be born so cynical. Ivar had constantly chosen to make his own life harder in his opinion.
"And you're not? You've been cynical ever since Wife #1 left." At this point, Ivar just referred to Bjorn's wives by numbers instead of actual names because, well, he was one away from being able to count them all on one hand. Monogamy was not one of his strong points.
"If you're not self-aware enough to know already, I'm not going to tell you." He cracks open a beer and pointedly begins drinking it rather then answering Bjorn further. Bjorn was smarter then Ivar gave him credit for, but he did still have the tendency to be more brawn then brain.
