   Well, that is normal.  The only thing a shrink really learns at the   
   university is to repeat the last two words the patient has uttered   
   before he/she stopped talking: "Your mother?" :p

   Well, they have this instinct for that.  It's a genetically embedded   
   tactic.  They simply strap themselves to their opponents - the ones they   
   try painting into crooks - out of the unrealistic but still   
   statistically rather successful innate realization that (a) their   
   opponents are actually less likely to go down than they are, and (b)   
   that if they were to go down on their own account, then they can take   
   their opponents down with them.
