About

"I'm rubber and you're glue – anything you say bounces off to me and sticks to you!" is a counterargument often employed by very young children as a way of deflecting blame or deprecation back to the accuser. It may be nothing more than an attempt to use wordplay as a shield, but it also seems very similar to the mirror argument pattern.
