Sometimes to warn the speaker that they said something out of line; sometimes to see if they're dumb enough to repeat it; sometimes because I can't believe they even said it the first time.

Yes I've done that. I don't really know why. I think that I'll be daydreaming. I'll hear what the person is saying but will not really be paying attention.
