Wanker
by Hiyalolasr January 23, 2025

In essence, calling someone a "backseat wanker" suggests that they are not actively participating or contributing, instead, they are being unhelpful or critical from a position of relative ease or distance, akin to someone sitting idly in the backseat of a car while others do the work of driving. It's a derogatory term used to criticize someone's behaviour or attitude.
Let's say a group of friends is working on a project together, and they're all brainstorming ideas and putting in effort to get the work done. One person, let's call him John, sits back and offers no suggestions, doesn't contribute any work, and just criticizes the ideas and efforts of others without offering any constructive input. John is essentially being a "backseat wanker" in this scenario, as he's not actively participating in the group's efforts but is quick to criticize from the sidelines without offering any meaningful contribution himself.

Canadian variant, common in the 1980's and 1990's. The equivalent of the American term, hesher. A young male who listens to metal or hard rock, wears a mullet style haircut or all around long hair, concert shirt or truck stop novelty joke shirt, Harley Davidson merchandise, high top Reebok shoes with the laces loose and tongues out. Hobbies include: amateur herpetology, getting blasted into oblivion smoking hash in the form of hot knives, drinking 60 pounder bottles of Smirnoff vodka, cruising Catholic schools at recess to pick up girls in the smoking area and playing eight-ball at the local pool hall or trailer park recreation building. Wanker tanker refers to a late 1970's model Chevy Camaro, Trans-Am or Firebird which is the chariot of choice for many wankers, as they can rarely afford a Corvette.
