Well, duh. You know how the point in life is to outkick your coverage in the following areas: job, wife, house, car? Well, when you’re Arnim Ramdass and you suddenly find yourself the new winner of $19 million via the lottery system that randomly awards tons of money to total dipshits and you’re married to a fairly unattractive woman who owns a foreclosed home … what the hell else are you going to do?
I don’t mean that to say it’s “moral” or even “acceptable” for this guy to bounce, but what did we really expect — true love to conquer millions of dollars? Come on. This isn’t the movies. However, in the face of basic human nature, there are two interesting aspects to this story: first, that this guy is obviously going to suffer GREATLY at the hands of karma. He won’t get run-over by a truck (unless it’s a moving van taking flowers to a wedding maybe) and he won’t be shot … he’s going to have something AWFUL happen to him and we will all nod our heads and learn a lesson. Maybe.
And secondly, I’d like to — for just a brief moment — point out the ironic timing of this given all the news about El Tigre. This random sketchball that just won $19 million knew that he should probably get out of a relationship that he wasn’t happy in (again, not saying it’s okay, just stating the facts). Tiger, on the other hand, has $19 million * $19 million * some other large number — and was sleeping with like 14 women, yet couldn’t wrap his head around the idea that staying single was the smart thing to. Maybe it’s too early for me to be smart, but I feel like that’s something Alanis Morrisette would appreciate. (And yes, I will now go kill myself for making that reference.)
