My sister laughed at me for saying one of these but I’m sure it’s what we grew up with and it was the more common, which has now changed to the other.

YABU - Only one is acceptable
YANBU - Both are in common usage

Rock, paper, scissors is the correct term. The only other thing I've heard it called is roe sham bo (sp) but that's only from my American friends
