Is it because they know you better than most people so it feels like they should "know better" than to incite your anger? I just don't know...
I don't know but I'll let you know if I get really angry I think in my case it's when I'm more comfortable around the person. I used to tell people it's a compliment when I start being mean, because that means I feel closer to them.
