The last person I would want to be stuck on a desert(ed) island with is the bullying bastard who bare-facedly manipulated, lied, scammed and cheated me out of my previous job, and got away with it. And if he was the one heading into shore on a little raft I would be plotting ways to tie him up and keep him out of mischief, because I spent nearly two years trying to break through to any sense of decency and humanity that he might have, believing that there is some good in everyone, but I reluctantly came to the conclusion that he is one of the exceptions to an otherwise excellent rule.

Some people deliberately set out to hurt other people, in the worst possible way, and no amount of reasoning with them or appealing to their inner core of humanity seems to get through to them. Sociopathic, disconnected from the rest of the human race, totally devoid of empathy! Tie him up on a nest of scorpions and see him weasel his way out of that one!

Sorry to get so serious, but that's my fair dinkum answer.
