My favorite! I've used this a few times in my public speaking lectures when we turn to the serious topic of persuasion.
"Argument is the automatic gainsaying of anything the other person says"
"Yes it is!"
"No it isn't"
That, and "Oh! I'm sorry, this isn't argument, this is abuse! Try Mr. Barnard, Room 12."
