This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I’m just hearing the term “wagies” for the first time, and I don’t like it. Workers who deal with obnoxious customers like Anon deserve common courtesy, not a demeaning nickname.

Imagine being an unemployed loser referring to workers as "wagies".

I guess it’s like racism and other forms of bigotry. Creating a reason to look down on others (even when, deep down, you know it’s bullshit) helps you feel less awful about your own pathetic self.

Huh, found the wagie.

I'm just being a dick cause it's 4chan.

On chans a lot of people aspire to live a neet life (not in education employment or trainin) and thus there is a dynamic where "based neet chads" look down on and mock the wagies that are forced to work.

Its a safe bet anyone using the term unironically is likely a complete goblin with no life.

it's a term used by privileged children raised like veal, you can safely discard the opinions of anyone saying it
