Him: “your hat”.

Me: “what do you mean”?

Him: “well it’s got horns”.

Me: “what’s that got to do with it"?

Him: “but isn’t it a Viking helmet”?

Me “but Vikings didn’t wear helmets like this so I don’t know what you mean"?

Torment a pendant, it eases the day.

 We need to see the photo of you now in this Non Viking Helmet !!  Tongue

The whisky is called "Viking Scars", which you probably get if you cut the horns off.
