I once discussed the joey-type with my dentist; he's an author, now in his eighties,
well balanced, well read, still studying life. He retired at 82, not for any reason other than to employ is remaining time for study and writing.
His works sell well. His name is Sokoloff.
He advised, and I did not fully believe his advice then:
"You cannot help those with toxic personalities. They are best avoided."
Well, so Arthur is right about that. What I can do is to remind others to warn others that toxic personalities are incurable disease, themselves, insistent to pass their ill-ease onto others. It's that simple.

his most popular book is introductory, a simple book for lay people,
been in print for years, and for years to come.

he probably knew that you were not going to be able to rise above your prejudices, and that your ad-hoc education couldn't protect you in real world situations not involving transaction and alcohol. then too, repairing your front teeth knocked out in the sailor bar, and the use of cocaine on the gums and opium for the procedure, might have left you a bit ga-ga --- certainly your thinking that this was wit and wisdom is ga-ga, and you're a sort of a lost little boy -- a boy who's boyed his way into this poetry nest -- nesty -- and your value is what? that you know how to plump a cushion and how to mix a cocktail -- and here you are, making judgments on your betters when, sink me, you ought to be watching 'the scarlet pimpernel'-- i just don't think you've got that certain something, that 'it', which attracts both sexes and makes boys and gerbils want to sniff your ears.

to reiterate for the real people here,
What I can do is to remind others to warn others that toxic personalities are incurable disease, themselves, insistent to pass their ill-ease onto others. It's that simple.
As Dr. Sokoloff said to me, even when considering a diseased mouth,
Nothing is really complicated
And that is figurative truth; metaphor of healthy human enamel.
