There’s this image going around, referred to in this video as a “greentext” image, in that way that people who are very online will just throw out there and expect that everyone knows what they’re talking about when other people (like myself) who are at least as online don’t know because they weren’t online in the same way. It seems that a “greentext” image is that way because it’s a quote in an old 4chan thread. Bleh.
But anyway. Said image is a list of obscure, but apparently canonical, facts about everyone’s favorite money-grubbing antiplumber, Wario. Narrator Mish Koz goes through each fact and tries to determine from whence it came. Many of them are sourced from an old Nintendo website. They’re entertaining at least, for 17 minutes. Here is the video:
The facts are:
- He has a bee allergy
- He likes wrestling & country music
- His favorite foods
- He can bench press 200 kg
- Dr Crygor uses him as a guinea pig for his experiments
- He goes treasure hunting with Mona
- He gave 9-Volt a GBA
- The reason for his immortality is he doesn’t feel like dying
- Things Wario hates: smart things, jerks that are stingy with their money, chocolate with peanuts, marron glacés, peppers and jigsaw puzzles
- Wario’s spending habits: he spends most of it on food
- He ate 100 Poison Mushrooms and red and white spots appeared over his body
- He washes his clothes every 10 days
- The source of his powers: garlic
- He has a farming background, although no one seems to actually know the source for this fact
