What makes him Hate Sink?[]

When he was brought to Castle of Friendship by Mane Six to have his wounds treated, he refused accept their help at first.
Like Garble, he was shown to be very dismissive towards ponies, pony-related things, and dragons who are younger than him such as Spike and Smolder.
After learning that Spike has been raised by ponies for years, he began lying to Spike that he is his long-lost father and telling his fake backstory just to exploit him, treated him like a slave and alienate him from his friends by teaching him how a "real dragon" should act. Due to his desire of living in luxurious life, he took his room away from him while Spike has to do everything what he says.
He is a slob and very lazy to the point of making others do all the work while he would do nothing but sleeping on Spike's room.
He is pretty selfish to the point of caring about himself instead of benefit of others, as shown when he says "It matters to me!" as Spike and Smolder confront him.
When he and Spike are fighting over the pillow, he panickingly confesses that he wasn't his father and telling his true intentions to him. Aside from that, he hypocritically claims that he simply did what any dragons would do, which Smolder strongly disagrees over this statement.
He never gets any comeuppance for deceiving and exploiting Spike as he escaped from Castle of Friendship and also taking Spike's pillow away, though he decided to leave his newfound life of luxurious and fend for himself in the wild again.
