I found it funny.
But I think you make a mistake when you essentially play into their little stalling show-and-tell game by saying "What do YOU got?"
I will frequently just turn my cards over anyway even if it's not my turn. Getting information by seeing their cards is nice of course but I'm not going to be that insistent about it. And I really don't care that much about the rest of the table supposedly getting information on me occasionally because most will misread or misapply that information anyway.

I prefer to much face-down when I don't have to show. But it's no big deal if I don't end up doing that for the sake of moving the game along and not having to get into ridiculous discussions like that with morons.
