I really hate this expression. If it's for me to find out, and I'm asking you so that I can find it out, why won't you tell me?

It's probably meant to be annoying. I know this selfsame expression in two more languages, so it's not necessarily solely an English thing.

Yes. It's one of my Dad's favorites, used to infuriate me as a child. But now I think, at least there's some hope in it - it could be worse. Could be "for you NOT to find out". But it doesn't specifically preclude you from finding out, it just says, "I'm not going to tell you, just for fun".
