Loud jerk is a sub-category of A-hole. It refers to anyone who causes irritation to others, usually through excessive and boisterous speaking. The term jerk is normally applied to males. One such jerk was a minor character featured in the 2011 superhero fantasy film Captain America: The First Avenger. In the film, a scrawny Steve Rogers is in a movie theater watching a World War II news reel. An impatient theater goer, anxious to see the actual film succeeding the news footage, began making obnoxious remarks. This caused Rogers to speak his mind, which ultimately led to the jerk taking him outside and beating the snot out of him in a back alley. Despite his perseverance, there was no way Rogers could win this fight and he had to rely upon the timely intervention of his best friend James Buchanan Barnes to save his hide. Barnes told the loud jerk to "pick on someone your own size", and then punched him. As the jerk turned away, Barnes booted him in the back-side and sent him packing.
