I found this new article to be hilarious! In a divorce a man measured his house, pulls out the chainsaw and goes to work. He cut it in two and hauled off his portion.

The tag line fits suitably: "We can only hope there are no kids or pets".
Oddly enough I'm sure we can think of other situations where this might apply when things go south. I guess it's the "cut your losses" mentality.
