no biscuit

Phrase coined by Amy C. Ralston and John P. Ralston playing Wiff'n'Proof ca 1978. Amy was 4 years old. The result of not guessing a pattern was declared "no biscuit" by Amy. Biscuits were not involved, but "no biscuit" was more fun than saying "no peg".

"I guess red".
"No biscuit".
"Darn".
