THE HOUSE M.D. FAN COMMUNITY

GQ online has an extensive oral history about House that answers a lot of questions--for one, the famous lost episode!

The link and excerpt is here on my LJ

I'm reaching out to all of the fanfic writers who are blocked, uninspired or just plain depressed. Not sure where else in Houseland to post this.  Suggestions, let me know.


I have been reading many entries from writers in various stages of agony.  Here's Annie Lamott's "Shitty First Drafts," which EVERY writer needs to read!

I tried to reach the owner of this comm and got no response. So, today was my last post here. There are things I want to do but can't do here. Tomorrow I will start the daily posts, puzzle and other fun activities at the new comm. I hope you'll join me there.

House: The answer is listeria. I’m starting you on amp and gent.

Foreman: So you’re basing this theory on the tests being negative and your rat being healthy?

House: And the fact that Legionnaire’s is helping you.

Foreman: But the medicine you wanna give me will put an end to that.

House: Yeah.

Foreman: And if it’s not listeria all the gent will do is cure the Legionnaire’s Disease and put whatever is killing me back into overdrive.

House: Stop asking me questions based on the premise that I’m wrong. The antibiotics are in the airlock.

Foreman: I think the first biopsy didn’t give us the answer because you didn’t go deep enough. I want you to do a white matter brain biopsy.

House: Absolutely. Don’t blame you. The world is such a complicated place if you’ve got higher reasoning skills. I’m often jealous of smaller animals and retarded children. Take the antibiotics.

Foreman: There can be minimal damage if it’s done right. If the surgeons drill where I tell them to drill.

House: One slip, you could spend the rest of your life not being able to keep your drool in your mouth.

Foreman: I’d rather be disabled than dead.

House: Sure, I make it look oh-so-sexy. It’s actually not as glamorous as you may think.

Foreman: The biopsy will tell us for sure what’s wrong.

House: The antibiotics could do the same thing!

Foreman: Could! Not will.

House: We try it, we see!

Foreman: The antibiotics will bring back the pain!

House: Pain makes us make bad decisions. Fear of pain is almost as big a motivator. Now look, we still have time. I will do that biopsy if I have to, but not a moment before.

Autopsy (Part 2), S2

House and New Team (S4)

House: Cullen's sign. But the ultrasound showed air as well as blood. Now, I know what you're thinking. Hemorrhagic pancreatitis. But I also know what I'm thinking. Doesn't explain the pneuomoperitoneum.

Adams: You took a new case?

Park: You ran tests yourself?

House: I saw the chance to help someone in need, and I instinctively — Oh, no, wait, that was someone else's instinct.

Taub: Wilson is dying. Your parole officer is probably on his way here right now. How are you possibly in a good mood?

House: Did you never see Dead Poets Society? Carpe diem.

Adams: Air in his abdomen could mean blah, blah, blah. Blah?

Taub: But blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

Park: Blah. Blah, blah.

Everybody Dies, S8

AMBER: Why'd you call me?

HOUSE: Because if I pooped myself in front of Wilson, I'd never hear the end of it.

AMBER: But why not one of the others?

HOUSE: You always had that phone in your hand.

AMBER: We all have cell phones. That's not the reason. What is?

HOUSE: If I died, you'd never get the job. I knew you wouldn't let that happen.

AMBER: You don't think anybody else has any reason to care?

97 Seconds, S4

I have attempted to contact the owner of this comm several times and have not received a response. She has not posted anything on LJ since 2012. Does anyone know her personally? I would love to take over this comm and do some more with it. Can you help me? I really want to keep the House love going.

Thanks!

Sebastian: [takes Cameron’s hand]Thank you. [House notices the cozy scene and decides to intervene.]

House: You want third-world treatment? [turns up the thermostat] You got it. Boy, is it hot here in Jani!

Cameron: What are you doing?

House: What am I doing? [He knocks all of Sebastian’s things off of the tray of the bed.] Putting everything on the floor of the hut. Uh oh, wicked magic box with the moving pictures!

Cameron: You think he’s a hypocrite?

House: [unplugging the TV] Hypocrite? No, everyone in Africa’s got cell phones or running water. [Speaking of cell phones, it just got dropped in the toilet. It’s a tight fit, though, so House prods it down the hole with his cane.] Hah, this thing just will not flush.

Sebastian: Do you really think that if you come in here and make it a little hot, make it smell a little, that I’m just going to fold and abandon everything that matters to me?

House: [wiping his cane on Sebastian’s blanket] Lousy sanitation over there, too. You are not the same as them; your life is not the same. And you are cheapening everything they’re going through by pretending you are.

Sebastian: I am the same, I’m not special.

House: You can’t demand to be treated like any third-world sick person and call a press conference!

Sebastian: They treat me special! That doesn’t mean I am! Now what kind of selfish jerk wouldn’t take advantage of that fact?

TB Or Not TB, S2

Cuddy : Um... France. And not Paris or the Rivera, but there's this place in Normandy. It's on a... a tidal island. Everyone who's not staying in one of the small inns has to leave before the tide comes in. You have this 900-year-old fortress all to yourself. It's called...

House : Mont Saint-Michel?

Cuddy : That's it. Have you been there?

House : Nope. But I got a pretty good idea what it looks like. [He turns the computer toward her, taps a button and the screen is filled with a picture of Mont Saint-Michel.]

Cuddy : H–how did you know?

House : You used to have a picture of it as a screensaver.

Cuddy : That was years ago.

House : I guess it's a memorable place. [turns the computer toward himself again] Now, unfortunately, we can't fly straight to Normandy, but the layover in London's only a couple of hours.

Cuddy : What are you talking about?

House : It's all there. [shows her a screen of travel information] All you gotta do is click confirm, and we're eating croissant and being insulted by stinky people this time tomorrow. Don't worry. I used Wilson's credit card.

Cuddy : I can't.

House : I'm kidding. I used your credit card.

Cuddy : House...

House : The hospital does not need your body. I do.

Cuddy : So does my daughter.

House : Well, she can come too. Or to grandmother's house she can go.

Cuddy : This is crazy.

House : [His face starts to get the closed, guarded look it usually has.] So...you break off your engagement, but you won't adjust your schedule.

Cuddy : I can't. Not... tomorrow. But... two weekends from now. If Rachel's gonna stay with my mom, I'm gonna need a little bit of prep time.

House : [His face softens and he smiles slightly.] Okay.

Now What?, S7
