The best part is that, if you're logged into an apps account that isn't provisioned for the service, it tells you to log in to another account. Then you log into that account and it tells you again to log in to another account. etc.
I've told some Googler friends about this, and I think they're filed bug reports, but the new fancy multi-account sign-in thing remains terminally broken. It's been bad for at least a year, I think.
My (partial) solution: all of my cookies are wiped every time I restart my browser. It turns out they're not all that important.

I've filed bugs as well, but there's no indication of whether your request is ignored or on some TODO list somewhere. Of course, my feedback tends to be more on the "unlikely to fix" end of things[1], but at least a "CLOSED WONTFIX" message would be nice.

I have Chromium wipe cookies every time, but uzbl is my default browser and it keeps cookies around which causes the Google services to get confused like this.
[1]Some examples: "Where is the NNTP gateway to Google Groups to read lists properly threaded?", "Where can I find the email address for a Google Group so I can use a useful email client?", "On Android, Chrome sucks at searching history."[2], and "Why can't I set Chrome to use DuckDuckGo from the search bar (or at least SSL for Google)?"[3].
