A late Romantic era composer known for his brilliant innovations in harmony and immensely large scale operas but also for his controversal proto-fascist views. Wagner composed mostly operas and, unlike most other composers, created his own librettos rather than setting music to those written by others. He also greatly developed the techniques of leitmotifs and through-composition.
Today, Wagner is probably best known for the wedding chorus popularly known as Here Comes the Bride (from his opera Lohengrin) and Ride of the Valkyries (from his opera The Valkyrie). Also, much of the modern stereotype of opera comes from his work, specifically the Ring cycle operas.
Due to his ultra-right wing politics and connection to the Nazi Germany, he is rather controversal composer and his work is more or less blacklisted in Israel.

A blonde jew trying to be a nazi, typically referring to the short MOTHER FUCKER THAT EATS SHIT THINKING IT HAS VITAMINS IN IT. A Wagner, such as Brett Joseph Wagner, is the largest of Wagners, feeling the need to ruin everyone's day at the sight of him in Britany's car every morning. Speaking to him is like trying to talk to a retarded dolphin, it's just not gonna happen.
Brett: Man guess what happened to me last weekend?
Me: What?
Brett: I lost my virginity to a passed out walrus!
Me: You are such a Wagner. B-R!!!

When you barf in the middle of an opera, preferably all over your date. The more steampunk the opera, the more of a probability that wagnering will happen. The wagnerer typically climbs over other opera patrons, covered in his or her own vomit, attempting to reach the bathroom to wagner some more.
Girlfriend: OMG go to the bathroom the opera is happening
Offender: HHUUUBLAAAHHHHHHHSSZZZDZZZZ
Patron: Wtf is that smell, did someone Wagner?!
