Two of the things I commonly say in arguments are the phrases “you aren’t listening to me” or “you don’t understand me”…
What I mean is “you don’t agree with me. Idiot.”

Nathan runs St Eutychus. He loves Jesus. His wife. His daughter. His son. His other daughter. His dog. Coffee. And the Internet. He is the campus pastor at Creek Road South Bank, a graduate of Queensland Theological College (M. Div) and the Queensland University of Technology (B. Journ). He spent a significant portion of his pre-ministry-as-a-full-time-job life working in Public Relations, and now loves promoting Jesus in Brisbane and online. He can't believe how great it is that people pay him to talk and think about Jesus.

An interesting dynamic, no? :)
What kind of arguments are we talking here, though? There are many varieties.
Any time that anybody disagrees with me.
My rationale is that I am always right. And if you disagree you either lack comprehension skills or you have no interest in what I am saying. Otherwise you'd be convinced.
