A woman’s son was given an order for an MRI because of some heart problems. He was very nervous about it, but he didn’t want to tell his mom why.
His parents were divorced. Turns out, when he was staying with his father years ago and came home with a black eye, it wasn’t caused the way he described. He and his friends were playing with a BB gun, and he got shot in the eye, and the BB was still in there under the skin. His father made him promise not to tell his mother.
They put a magnet up to it, and it was attracted to the magnet. They had to get it removed so they could get the MRI.
The chef’s kiss to the story:
As a child, his mother had lost an eye after being shot with a BB gun.
A central theme is the main character Ralphie really wants a Red Ryder Carbine Action 200-shot Range Model air rifle for Christmas, but all the adults he expresses this to insist he’ll shoot his eye out.
Of course, you’re correct. Now I feel like an idiot.
To be fair, I don’t allow myself to watch Christmas movies or listen to Christmas music except between Thanksgiving and Christmas, so my mind wasn’t there yet.
Only way to fight back in the War on Christmas, which like the Palestine and Israel is mostly just an excuse for the alleged victim (Israel) to attack and take territory from their neighbors.
Here Christmas has invaded so far that there are occasional sightings before the equinox.

Wow, that movie was right
What movie?
I’m guessing A Christmas Story (1983).

Tell me about it. I went to Home Goods on November 1st to see if they had any Halloween stuff on clearance.
The entire store was decked out for Christmas and the Thanksgiving stuff was on clearance.
Of course, since I live in a decaying, haunted house, Thanksgiving themed decor would clash with the natural ambiance .
