Cornelius is the prime example, as he is just a snarky jerk, while the shark he insults is a sadistic brute. Another example is Thanasis from ''Rosa'', who might be a jerk with a creepy idea of love, but he is a better person than the self-righteous Rosa he mocks, and Chrysanthi surpasses him in terms of unhealthy obsession with someone.
