I wonder what the slang name is for a rich young Irish heir who inflicts cruel and unusual punishment on an innocent member of the opposite sex while recording the event in detail.

Most Irish slang comes from being in a drunken stupor, intellectually lazy and poorly educated, i.e. they have to invent words for want of knowing words that already exist.

"Take the abominations of James Jameson, the Irish whiskey heir, who stayed behind while Stanley went on searching for the reluctant Schnitzer. “Fascinated by the subject of cannibalism” and something of an amateur sketcher, Jameson bought an 11-year-old girl while bivouacked on the Congo and handed her over to a group of Africans; and while they stabbed her, dismembered her, cooked her and ate her, Jameson did drawings of the whole hideous business."
