Someone who breaks up stupid facebook fights. Usually someone who is tired of people using facebook to argue and would just like to see the two combatants fall in deep holes. Usually a person who doesn't know the the people arguing that well, and so will not face backlash from either of them later on for breaking up the facebook fight.
Facebook User 1: y0ure dummm!

Person in a group chat who passive aggressively steers the conversation using reactions such as "Ha Ha" or "Thumbs Down"

The people in nation rugby league who make the choices whether its a try or no try, Video referees are infact usless, and pathetic, and can usually never make a correct call, some stupid vid reff's are: Steven Clark, Sean Hampstead, and bill harrigan.

Video referees can win or lose a game for a team, and are in most cases, Cheaters.
