SIL: "Grandpa, I keep hearing this strange noise in the kitchen and I can't figure it out."
ME: "What appliances do you have or what are you running?" (I'm thinking the furnace is sending a "vibration" because it's cold out and it's running often) SIL: "I cut the power to the whole house and it is still there!" ME: "Then what you have there son, is one of the grand kids stuck some battery operated toy in one of the cabinets and the battery is low and making a indistinguishable sound." SIL: "No fucking way, I just found it....You are awesome grandpa, this was driving me nuts." ME: " No problem kid, been there and done that." SIL: I'm ready to take a hammer to this thing." ME: No, just put new batteries in it and hand it back to my grand child." We're still good for something. 
ETA: I've had a few whisky's tonight so I surprised myself with my rapid explanation.

I can tell you that would be about the only reason I would want a kid. So that I could buy annoying ass toys when they have kids. So I guess I'll have to just give my buddys kid annoying toys, seeing as I'll likely never have a kid.

Quoted:

I hid one of these in my brother's house. Drove him absolutely nuts for a week. The best part was him accusing his son of planting it.
