Maybe his ego had took a hit and he wanted to punish himself by shooting his own reflection. Not only that but now he's got seven years of bad luck. Tom

It’s really not all about you Tom, I’ve been trying to exact these one liners (well in this case 2 liners) a long time! Just enjoy the irony like John below!
