My mom got me my first one in 2019 or 2020 because she thought it was cute (Guyfolye from Silicon Valley). A few months later she asked me if they were just Beanie Babies and I thought that was the end of it. Now every Christmas I get one even though she knows I don't like them and we both snark on the super niche weird ones. She even got custom ones for me and my wife last year. It never ends, and I have 6 sets of beady little eyes staring at me when I'm watching TV in the basement.
I feel like you need to hear this: just because someone gifts you something doesn't mean you need to keep it endlessly, or at all. Donate/giveaway/trash.
I know, I've been trying to work on it. Moving furniture and throwing away things is pretty hard for me.
