please tell me this is a joke

Somebody please tell me that this is a joke. The order form failed to process so I'm guesing that's the sign that it's not serious. I can't stop laughing at this.

If you buy, they also throw in a home lobotomy kit at no extra charge.

Dont tell me you have not discovered TheOnion newspaper. There's unbiased review there of said hi-ly rated product.

I think it's a sort of "spam/joke" in order to have high paid tagetted adwords on these pages...

I think the real joke is that Dr. Amir Khadim, M.D., Ph.D. himself may not be the best person to use in an advertising picture for the said product. I mean... you know... trust and so on ;)

I think this is from the same guys who sold Uncle Rico the time machine in Napoleon Dynamite. What could go wrong?

Wow, people will get far with the surgeory with this warning:

Definitely a ploy for high paying Adsense revenue.

Don't blink! LOL!

I like how Dr. Khadim is pictured wearing glasses. I guess he hasn't tried the procedure on himself!

Those guys'll be getting $30+ per click adsense revenue. Wish I had thought of that!

I seem to remember the Lasik@Home site went online at the beginning of the month -- i.e. April 1.

It reminds me of the home plastic surgery kits in... something Warren Ellis wrote, probably Transmetropolitan.

I'm extremely sensitive when it comes to my eyes. I can't even put on contacts. lol, I would never ever try to perform something like this on myself.
