a Wiger? Is that a "soft" g like in "wager"?
I checked my Merriam Webster and this is what came up...

The word you've entered isn't in the dictionary. Click on a spelling suggestion below or try again using the search box to the right.

Suggestions for wiger:

1. wedgier
2. wager
3. wiser
4. winger
5. Wigner
6. widget
7. widgeon
8. wisher
9. witcher
10. wider
11. wigeon
12. whiter
13. wedgies
14. wedgy

So I thought...ok this must be some sort of odd dialect. I popped the word into my Dialectizer and selected Jive talk and to my surprise...nothing? So trying to understand what a Wiger was so I could ask you a smart question drew a blank.
Ive seen many of my friends "lay Wagers"...but I dont think you guys are talking about getting laid....so it must be "Wiggers" or the slang for a white home boy wanting to be black. Im sure part of the problem is because you were once a wigger you forgot to take the "Engrish" class that was supported by the public education system and instead learned Ebonics? I can hardly wait for the next generation of applications to hit my desk....should be great fun!
