The actual explanation for this is your desire to argue with your current interlocutor, whoever that may be at the moment.
Should I argue with this or no? Ah, a nice Catch-22... :-)
However there wasn't much arguing in this thread. I didn't tell gjm that he was wrong. Instead I offered more of an alternate explanation (to the "prima facie insane" hypothesis :-D) as I am generally interested in finding alternate ways of looking at things.
Once someone was saying that "you always say I'm wrong," and I said, "I said you were right on occasions A, B, and C," and they responded, "See! you're doing it again! that proves you always say I'm wrong!"
