I'm not sure I've ever deliberately set out to play "The Jerk", but I've played a character that had absolutely no filters. (This was a big deviation for me since I tend to play diplomatic, ultra political characters.) She would outright say if she thought someone was smelly or stupid, and so, she was labeled a jerk. This didn't stay in character for very long. One of the conflicts that occurred immediately went out of character with someone claiming that I was harassing her.
I think it's very hard for "The Jerk" to exist for very long on any gaming environment because people seek a rememdy for having to deal with that kind of behavior.
