Personally I WANT him to win a ton - maybe not from me but I like seeing those guys win.

Absolutely! The more they win, the more they stick around. Once they bust out the table action is often dead.

His stats seem to show either

Getting good cards since the pretty high showdown rate and win rate at showdown usually. Good thing you noticed he's playing some weird stuff, so you can just count as he's getting lucky, thus play accordingly.

Ive noticed some say that when you have a high WSD% that you are not folding enough - I take this as a calling station.

-BB/100 plus high WSD% = Not folding enough or not folding sooner...going too far with losing hands...etc. Right?

You've brought up a good point. If someone has a low V$IP like 18% along with a high WSD%, it would seem they are tight (real specific to playing premium hands) AND actually really getting good cards.

What exactly does W$SD and WSD% mean?

True they sorta go hand in hand. If you have a huge showdown % that means you are always making to the river, and if your BB/100 is negative you are showing down with weak hands

True they can be pushed off pots. These people usually bet out into a preflop raiser and bet out on the flop with top pair.

W$SD = won money at showdown
WSD% = went to showdown percent wise

If you are on tilt, quit the game. Nothing else will help you.

Play solid poker against someone who plays every hand.

You will win, in the end.
