That sounds a bit petty from you, at least from my POV.

No matter how nerdy you are, going outside is healtht, both physically and mentally. They got you a nice gift, IMO.

I didn't like a gift that demonstrated zero understanding of who I was or what I would have wanted.

There was no attempt to talk to me about going outside more or getting more exercise, I have always been pretty skinny and reasonably healthy, and at no point did I indicate that I didn't go outside or wasn't active.

But I'm sure you understand my parents and their motivations better than I do.
Lenny moment.

You're only making one person look silly, and it's not them.
