When I was in seventh or eighth grade, jacks was a popular game for the girls to play. We all had scraped knuckles from playing on the asphalt playground at lunchtime. 
I picked up a set of jacks at the store recently, to play with my younger son. I thought it would be good for his small-motor coordination. He got tired of the actual game pretty quickly, though, and decided to put the pieces to "better" use, in his own unique way.
"I have a land mine with two jack balls in it," I heard him say.
I replied, "Jack balls are for jacks, not land mines."
"Jack balls don't even remotely resemble land mines," my 18-year-old commented.
