I've been that stranger. I can assure you it is just as annoying for them. I used to slide one quick round in late at jax beach or Windsor durring  week. you can roll at a pretty steady pace and normally 2- 4somes will let you play through. I've gotten 18 done in 2 1/2 hours. Haven't been so lucky lately. I'll get paired up with three and end up dropping out after 9 once I realize there is no way to finish.

Besides the exercise, this is a reason I prefer to walk. Only once I was paired up with another walker. 

What I find annoying on the course is getting ready to tee up and discover there's a group in front who are playing so bad that one of them doesn't even get in the cart. He just walks up to the ball because it only travels 25 yards with each swing. That's when I play up and put the pressure on them to let me play through. I make a scene of standing in the middle of the fairway (hopefully) and watching them expectantly. 
Nothing beats the time I got caught up behind a grandpa pulling out a tripod and camera to take pictures of his teen-aged granddaughter making numerous approach and lob shots onto the green. She actually had pretty good swing form and played pretty well. There was only a few holes left, I was in no hurry, and no one was behind me so I remained patient. I didn't want to interrupt quality family bonding time.
