This almost HAS to be intentional at this point. I'm thinking some version of:

"Oh, you won't let me back out of spending this money to buy your platform? Ehhh, i guess that money is gone now. I'll just mess around with this and try to have fun with it."

or:

"Goddamn that was a lot of money that I didn't actually want to spend. I'm going to destroy this now, piece by piece."
