Having actually HAD laser eye surgery myself (and it was probably the most 'pleasant' surgery I've ever had. One vicodin, one valium, I didn't feel SHIT and I was in and out in less than an hour with my own sunglasses and eye drops), I can totally fucking believe this. My co-workers at my mill job were giving me shit until my boss threatened to fire them if they didn't knock it the fuck off. The one guy that did grab for my glasses got a right cross that said boss handily didn't see me throw.
