Dibbler's sausages taste awful, but with a lot of sizzling onions and persistent price-cutting, Dibbler always manages to make a living by selling these sausages to people who have gotten sick from his sausages before.

 Newsgroup Discussions: Evil On The Disc: Part I
Thus we cannot blame Silverfish or Dibbler for their actions: they were trying to maximise their own return within the rules of nature and the Patrician, and they were not able to foresee the end result.
Dibbler then extended his control over the whole enterprise by appointing vice presidents (including Detritus as VP in charge of VPs), and eventually was able to order Detritus to eject Silverfish.
Dibbler may be fixated by money, incredibly self-confident, and willing to defraud anyone he can, but he doesn't actually kill people, probably because it's more difficult to sell things to them then.

 CMOT Dibbler Discussion - Television Tropes & Idioms
When I go to make an entry about a grasping but warm-hearted character, it is going to be easier to recall 'Dibbler' than a list of letters or a list of qualifiers.
