Anon is often depressed.
Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

That's what we call them in Australia, so I assume the poms call it that too. Probably the case in other Commonwealth countries also.

I believe yanks also call them "Walmart Formal Wear."

It's an old-fashioned term in American English.
