The Art of Verbal Diplomacy

After I turn down her request for a second chocolate chip oatmeal cookie, my daughter, riding up on my shoulders, begins to chatter to herself:

"It's not fair."
"Yes, it is fair."
"It's not fair."
"Yes, it is fair."
"No, it's not!"
"Yes, it is."
"It's not fair!"
"Yes, it is fair! What's your problem?"
"I don't know."
"Ok."
"I'm hungry."
"Me, too...."

(She often disagrees with herself, but at least she resolves it diplomatically...)
