Happened to my mom IRL too, way back before I was born, in like 1970 her sister gave her a set of three elephants that she displayed on a shelf by the front door. People coming over thought she liked elephants so people started gifting her elephants. By the time I was born she had a full fledged elephant collection, multiple shelves worth. I even added to it when I was a kid because I thought the same thing until she told me one day that she doesn’t really have any type of interest in elephants, it was a collection that other people made for her.
This happened to me irl as a kid. I said I liked frogs at a family event once and for the next 5 years I got frog themed presents.
Here you go bud, I know how much this means to you :)
Thanks, that’s a cute frog.

I feel like this was a thing on The Good Place.
The doorman actually loved frogs
But didn’t he get tired of frog tchotchkies after a while?
Not when he got a real frog
Ohhh now I remember, he was so happy :)
That’s awesome, though. Frogs are cool as fuck and presents are fantastic.
