Example: I didn't hit the child, it was someone at school, honest! (Usually followed by lengthy explanations of why it couldn't have been you who perpetrated such a crime.)

Historical usage

The term was popularized during the 1950s when high school students found out that, despite what their parents told them, drinking alcoholic beverages was fun. (No wonder our parents did it so much!) And thus: blaming others for one's own misdoings became a national pastime overnight. In fact, it found its way to the top along with baseball, chewing chewing tobacco, and sexism. Ah, what a beautiful decade!
