Edison Screw

Screwing someone over so bad it borders on sociopathic. It's beyond just business, it's beyond ambition, it's sick and twisted and the bestower of said screwing gets a perverted enjoyment out of it.

"Did you hear James' ex wife gave him the Edison Screw after the divorce by stealing his dog then getting it put down?"
