WOG

(pronounced: wahg)

They say "it takes one to know one" for a Wise Old Guy. Wog is also what CofS church members call a non-Scientologist.

Historical perspective: In response to a 2019 event in which a quarantined cruise ship owned by the Church of Scientology discovered a person on board had a highly contagious disease, Leah Remini, a former Scientologist, tweeted that the measles outbreak is embarrassing for the sect because the ship “is where they reach one of the highest levels of Scientology & are supposed to be impervious to ‘Wog Illness.’”

An acronym used primarily in texting, online chat, instant messaging, e-mail, blogs, and newsgroup postings, it is also considered a form of online jargon or text message shorthand.
