[;)] <br /> <br />What annoys me is when I am having a spirited debate (for example, with someone I've known for a while and know they are just as hard headed as I am, and we are having fun with each other) and someone totally removed from that friendship comes along and high handedly decides to insert themselves as moderator/peace maker.
