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.

Get the New Mexico Window Washer mug.Someone who washes their penis on the urinal flush stream. To do this, they normally thrust their pelvis (and thus penis) deep into the urinal, until the penis touches the stream. They will then flush the urinal, often repeatedly, until they deem their penis to be clean. Paper towel is then used to dry the penis.
One variant is to just use a paper towel (available in most public washrooms) run the paper towel under the urinal stream, and then wash the penis manually with the paper towel.
