My kids use "no fair!" like a liberal uses "Fascist!"----it means "I'm not getting my way!"

Where do they learn this? I don't recall ever even saying the phrase.

I certainly knew it as a kid.

This would make an excellent ad campaign.

Show adults throwing temper tantrums like children when they don't get their way.
