While it proves nothing, I have had the misfortune to have met a couple of people who act almost identically to the everyday Edhouse, and, on an off-day, exactly like the rather more extreme Edhouse as presented by Thorne. The two personalities are perfectly consistent with each other, in my humble experience. It's not a million miles from Calacanis. I'm leaning towards 'exaggerated for comic effect', as opposed to 'exactly as it happened' or 'made up'.
