A little boy's birthday gift from Grandma was a water pistol.
Mom said to Grandma, "I'm surprised at you. Don't you remember how we used to drive you crazy with water guns?"
Grandma grinned. "Oh, yes, I certainly do."

True story.
My brother liked to make basically anything into a drum, when he was little. When his son was born, Mom sent a child's drum kit. My bother sent it back to Mom, which promptly sent it back to him. Went back and forth several times before my brother just said "thank you" and threw the kit away.
When he pressed my Mom for why she was so insistent, her reply was "payback is a biotch".
