The psychological urge to start a pointless argument, not out of any personality clash or personal issues, but just to get the adrenalin rush from the conflict thus generated. If the other intended person, or persons do not rise to the conflict, but stay fairly cool and calm, the Arguebater may try and start another row, on a different topic. This repeated attempt at starting domestic or workplace conflict, is arguebation. The arguebater needs to arguebate. Frequently and in public.

She has a throbbing urge to arguebate. She can't help it. She's addicted to arguebation.
