When you say "foo.should_receive(:bar)" you're saying "foo should receive bar
sometime between now and the end of this example. The first example, the "get"
is doing something that causes @user.articles to receive :find_by_id, but in
the second example that's already happened before you set the expectation and
does not happen again, so you get a failure message.
