leg hurt 🙁
And opiod addiction
>And opiod addiction
that's because leg hurt 🙁
excuses
a symptom of being a massive prick, not the cause
he was born this way
atheism
You fedoras don't even go to church.
you're absolutely correct. i do go to mass though
mass gay orgy
but enough about your dad
Why would you assume they're atheists?
But he goes to church at Christmas though?
yeah so does jd from scrubs, im sure they take it equally seriously
People are garbage. He started practicing medicine before realizing it.
Stacy went against his wishes and fricked up his leg. Literally unforgiveable.
Stacy told Cameron that he was an butthole even before the leg. Stacy gravitated to another guy who was also House-lite.
He was a sarcastic knowitall before the infarction, after it he became bitter and resentful at stacy and cuddy for allowing it. and he was right btw if they listened to him he wouldnt be stuck with a bum leg and chronic pain
yeah, he'd be dead
He wasn't right, he would have died of septic shock if they'd gone through with his original wishes. House himself even admits in season 6 that insisting on keeping his leg was the worst mistake of his life and that he should have listened to the people who urged him to amputate.
but he could just amputate his leg at any time
literally could get an O.R whenever he wants.
also Masters final episode with the amputation is fantastic and a great character arc
Not canon
Yeah, but then you’d have a show about a perfectly competent and happily married doctor with one leg that nobody watched.
Because of his father
He understand the anatomy and physiology of one mammal better than other mammals around him so that makes him superior in his mind. it's the same with all GP's. It's a copium mechanism. You can find it in almost every profession.
Intelligent people tend to be narcissistic and snarky
Midwits*
Intelligent people maybe. Wise ones aren't like that.
Intelligence and wisdom are two different things. I've seen more wisdom from a man who never finished third grade than a man who had an MD
How many intelligent people do you know? I agree with this anon:
that snark is for midwits. Find me a video of a genius on Youtube who acts like Robert Downey Jr. I doubt you'll be able to. Highly intelligent people are more robotic than anything.
being more intelligent makes you better at everything, including social interactions
That's actually true, which is how I know the intelligence level of Cinemaphileners. Thanks for not giving me any examples. I'll be here filtering threads full of unintelligent people while people tell me what they think intelligent people are like.
obvious examples are people like feynman or tversky
but ipso facto, intelligence makes you better at everything. that's literally he definition of intelligence. the onus is on you to prove that it makes you better at everything EXCEPT socializing, even though increases in intelligence probably evolved to make us better at being social.
anyone who tells you it doesn't do this is just coping, having to rationalize their opinion of themselves as "intelligent" while that's contradicted by how much other people hate them.
It's actually cope to suggest intelligence alone will make you good at social interactions. Lots of people rather wish that were true.
>n-no u
t. idiot
Being good at social interaction can be learned. It honestly comes natural to just about everyone, but some people put mental barriers on themselves that hinder them.
Intelligent people struggle with this more though.
>anyone who tells you it doesn't do this is just coping, having to rationalize their opinion of themselves as "intelligent" while that's contradicted by how much other people hate them.
No, I completely agree with you. If someone can't get normalgays to like them, then they aren't smart. Being liked is as simple as acting like a person that the other guy likes. If you can do that, then you're smart. I don't like a single person on Cinemaphile, for example.
everybody I talk to likes me, or at least so they repeatedly directly tell me to my face unprompted for reasons beyond me, but I'm a schizoid so I avoid everyone preferring the company of my imaginary friends
my opinion is that everyone who struggles socially is actually moronic, and everyone who denies this is moronic and in profound denial
getting people to like you is so fricking easy, people literally tell you how to do it. even the biggest autist can follow these easy instructions. the only reason to be disliked is if you're making people dislike you on purpose, for fun
Given your self-proclaimed schizo status, you're probably not in the best position to analyze things like this.
>I'm a schizoid so I avoid everyone preferring the company of my imaginary friends
I'm exactly the same. I can get people to like me, if I want them to. In school, people liked me, but I always sat by myself. Nobody really understood why, but it was because I didn't like them.
I've been friends with Chads, for example. How is that possible when I'm not a normalgay? Well, you just become the kind of person they are. What did they like to do? They liked to go to bars, and clubs, so I went with them. They liked to play FIFA, and I played with them (I don't even like sports). It's really easy to be liked, but it's also a lot of effort, and that's why someone might choose to be alone.
Sounds like antisocial personality disorder
>I can get people to like me I just choose not to
Extreme cope
He just said that people like him, so you didn't even understand his post. Can you be someone people like? Try and do it. You won't be able to. Nobody on this site can do it.
I can I just choose not to.
I'm sure that's the case. Reply after the hide and maybe frick off to a filtered thread.
No
>It's easy to get people to like you
Yes. Don't be an butthole. It's amazing how many people don't know this
>Don't be an butthole
What does it mean to be an butthole? Explain what that is. That's not how you get people to like you. If you want to be friends with buttholes, you would have to act like one.
It means don't be an unpleasant person to be around. There's no magic recipe to bring likeable, simply because a pleasant person. Smile, joke (within reason. Don't be that moron telling a race or sex joke) be as nice as you can within reason, don't be a doormat.
>Don't be that moron telling a race or sex joke
Mmm, okay. It kind of sounds like that's your guide to getting Reddit to like you. I don't like you, so you've already failed. Reply after the hide and consider what I said.
>”I can get people to like me easily”
>is the most insufferable person in the thread
Tell a race joke to a complete stranger and see how well it goes moron. Jokes like that you only tell with close friends, not strangers you're trying to get to know
Basically do the opposite of how you're being right now
Not really, most intelligent people are socially maladjusted. Not to say that they're hazardous in any way but rarely great casual conversationalists. Unless you think people like Bill Gates are social butterflies.
bill gates is a moron, I think that's obvious for everyone to see
Bill Gates is a sociopath that opened a center for "population control".
>Bill Gates is a sociopath that opened a center for "population control".
What does that mean? Is he rounding up all the non-whites? He really is a genius.
Normgroid cope, people more than 30 iq points apart have mutual incomprehension.
>I can't understand simple things
yeah clear sign of high intelligence for sure
Look it up
Other way around. Intelligent people overthink too much and are often bad at socializing compared to their more relaxed "normal" peers.
If a person knows how to use their intelligence to their benefit, they can be pretty good socially, but stupid people rarely struggle on that front. Same reason why intelligent people are suddenly good conversationalists after a few drinks, their inhibitions and neuroticism are lowered.
If you were the best in such a prestigious line of work you'd be a massive prick to. I know I would be.
Yes literally in the first episode and then almost every single episode in the series. He is jaded because he was betrayed by his wife, who opted for a different medical procedure (though this is only revealed someway into the show) than the one he wanted, which resulted in not only lost functionality of his leg but severe chronic pain, the severity of which lead to a vicodin addiction.
He is literally in constant severe pain and has begun to associate that pain with him being such a good doctor.
He was also kind of a dick before that happened...so it just made him a lot worse.
I haven't watched it since it aired but it stuck with me that he's an butthole because he's in constant pain.
Doc here, out of all the shit i read about in med school, chronic pain was probably the most nightmare fuel. Imagine the alarm system of your body being constantly on.
>Doc here
Lol. Excuse me if I don't believe you. What country?
>Imagine the alarm system of your body being constantly on.
I've had temporary pain (in the form of Gout) and it's quite bad. I can understand why someone in pain would be angry, because you would ask yourself
>why am i in pain and not everyone else
and the only answer you'd find is "frick you. that's why".
Why do people here always find it hard to believe that i'm a doctor? This place used to be the spear head of global culture, why wouldn't intelligent people still inhabit this place as old bad habit?
Being a doctor isn’t hard. It’s literally just “I have a supportive and/or rich family but am too dumb for any intellectually challenging profession”.
You seriously think chronic pain of all things is nightmare fuel lmao is this a joke
It's simple but brutal.
I mean the worst disease you can have is the one where your muscles all turn to bone and all that boils down to really is plain plus immobility.
most doctors don't give a shit about pain. It's not something they can treat so they basically ignore it.
>do physical therapy
This is what the DEA recommends.
I believe it because my mother has chronic pain and there are moments where just cries because the pain is just too much.
Constant pain
According to Cody, House was like that even before the operation. only after that his bitterness increased.
Now he is not only Bitter but he has "Arguments" for it. When he didn't have it before, he was like that
>me leg 'urts m8
Yes, chronic pain and being a doctor. Being a doctor fricking sucks and basically exists for people with the family background to become a lawyer or engineer but without the sociopathy or the intelligence, respectively, to become either. So they’re allowed to make up for it with 80-hour weeks and a life of misery to make as much as a mid-level programmer.
>or the intelligence, respectively, to become either
This is how I know you're not a doctor. It's much, much harder to get into medical school than law school. Law school is actually pretty easy to get into, because there's no real gatekeeping. Med school has legit gatekeeping that prevents a lot of people from getting in, but those who do get in are basically guaranteed jobs post-graduation.
To get into med school, like every other kind of high education, all you need is money. This is why everyone is decked out with student loan debt. There is no gatekeeping, as long as you can pay for it that's all they care about.
Unless you want to go to some prestigious school somewhere on the east coast. Even then, no one knows where their fricking doctor went to school at nor do they care. All anyone cares about is whether their insurance will pay for it or not.
Nah, I've met people who have had to retaken the MCAT multiple times, or who have had to spend years getting masters degrees in healthcare to boost their resume to getting into med school, etc. You need a strong GPA and a strong mcat score, along with good softs, to get into med school.
Anon the gatekeeping is BECAUSE it has no intellectual barriers to entry.
So they do a ton of hazing and such nonsense.
Superior intelligence and curiosity coupled with: abusive military disciplinarian non biological father, repressed coward mother, constant travel and instability during childhood.
As much as a cliché it is he can be explained by being a intellectually repressed kid without any friends. Then he does the "trying hard to be cool" route in adulthood to compensate.
If House was so smart, why didn't he train Foreman to be a better leader?
He didnt want any more uppity blacks.
Doctors in hospitals are one of the most damned people on earth. Imagine studying for 6 years, being left in a constant pupil state-of mind, with your self esteem equal to mush shit from years of dealing with authocratic profs who are arrogant and buttholes just like you will become soon. Then comes the years of being in medical residency. Again, you're just a little squirmy worm in the eyes of the arrogant homosexual doctors. And that keeps on until one of the old fricks dies or gets fired and you can become a doctor now and frick smaller people over.
And that's without having constant pain. So yeah, he's an butthole, but the pain and being a frickin' doctor made him that way.
Always be kind to doctors that try to be compassionate.
Thing is, once you become a doctor, you be one for decades, unless you're a surgeon. So it makes sense that people in such a long career have to climb through more shit
People with consistent severe pain either become passive to everything or permanently angry
People with slightly above average intelligence tend to act like pricks after seeing "smart" people act like that in movies and TV. Actually smart people act charismatic and friendly because they understand the need to have people on their side and have the mental discipline to go through the process even if they don't actually like people. Midwits will think I'm talking about sociopaths.
>Actually smart people act charismatic and friendly because they understand the need to have people on their side
Absolutely. Consider this: You're the smartest man on the planet, and a bunch of Black folk wants to kill you. How will you big brain out of that one? Hide? Shoot them? Maybe they have guns. The smartest possible thing would be to have other people shoot them, and charisma would come in handy there.
If you're alone, then intelligence is quite useless, because you'll still lose to a group, which is why it's important to be liked. If someone can't be liked, then they aren't smart enough.
This is true. When I was doing my math degree, math students and profs were some of the nicest people I've encountered, aside from 1 or 2 extremely intelligent but bitter professors. I'd say that jerks are usually a product of being ugly or having to deal with the general public every day. Ugly people are usually treated poorly, so it's a retaliatory action to be a dick.
no wife and children
he had a wife, she left because he became a c**t after his thigh muscle died
Try working in health care and you will get it.
Why does this guy have a Dota 2 logo tattoo? Real based department shit.
vicodin makes you mean after awhile
leg hurt form doctor error, making him divert to medicine out of anger in the first place, after ditching physics
>his dad is a phony
>his wife dumped him and he kept sabotaging his other romances (cuddy, the prostitute)
>his leg hurts
>he’s mad because they would’ve cut it off but he insisted they save it
>all his patients lie
he isn't even a "massive prick" and it's my most hated part about the show. if they wanted anybody to make sense when they were going on some melodramatic tirade about how bad he is then they should have actually written him as a BAD guy. oh no this mangled cripple with an opioid addiction, no wife, no kids, living in a sad roommate situation with his cancer riddled friend says some sort of abrasive things some time with a comedic undertone - WATCH OUT! we better belittle and gaslight and frick with him and even sometimes his patients to "teach him a lesson" about humility and being a better person
fricking moronic.
Believe it or not most Mongolian basket weaving behavior is way beyond “massive prick” and into “subhuman” territory.
If you make rude sarcastic comments at work that is basically as nasty as you can be in a work environment without getting fired over it.
If you called someone “fricking moronic” even as a doctor you’d be at best pressured into finding other work if not fired outright.
>If you called someone “fricking moronic” even as a doctor you’d be at best pressured into finding other work if not fired outright.
I completely believe that, which is why I don't think there's even one doctor on Cinemaphile. A doctor would come here and think
>why would i speak to these people
and leave. I can stand this place regardless of how bad it gets, because I've spent my life on Cinemaphile, and I have nowhere to go. A person in a well paid profession would not have to feel like that.
Idk, my dad used to be one and if he were born in the 2000s instead of the 60s he would probably have been here.
Where should i go? How should i spend my hangover sunday afternoon? Already coomed in a hot big titted nurse.
Anon are you mad
Don’t frick with nurses they’re crazy and evil
Only weak men describe women as evil.
Why is literally every doctor I’ve ever met, like several dozen different people, eternally trapped in the Eve stage of anima development?
Oh right, because a doctor is just a spoiled brat that failed out of engineering.
I never even cared for a science job lmao, it was either medicine or politics/business.
can you just not reply to me if you're going to make up these moronic strawmen? house never once calls anyone a "fricking moron" nor does he even get close to doing so
>house never once calls anyone a "fricking moron"
He was talking about the people of this website, and not House, but you clearly didn't comprehend his post. When he said
>Mongolian basket weaving behavior
He meant the way the people of this website act.
I think the post was really good, and it's why I refuse to believe that a doctor would browse Cinemaphile. A doctor should be smarter than me, so what are they doing here? Who would they speak to? There would be no one. It really makes no sense.
So where on the internet should i go to? I can't just discuss every single topic on earth with my small amount of colleagues.
>So where on the internet should i go to?
/r/gianthomosexuals or wherever the frick, i dunno
I'm not saying you should leave, and I'm saying you should not want to be here. Do you enjoy this place? I've been here longer than anyone, and I don't.
I'm sorry man, there's too much spam and bots to funpost anymore. The board had to change. I didn't plan to hate myself forever either. Besides, doesn't everybody know this place is important now? It's just the natural progress of things. You can't make yourself small as it were, you're one of the anons now
i know and i don't give a shit. clearly neither of YOU homosexuals can read because i'm actually discussing the topic of the thread and see no need to discuss pointless meta shit like the behavior of anonymous users on Cinemaphile. fricking. moron.
Talking about people's behaviour is meta? Anyway, you can eat my fricking shit after I filter this thread. Please shit in each others mouths like sub-human Black folk while I filter every thread on the board.
I was referring to you saying “fricking moron” at the end of your post.
I.e. house isn’t bad compared to HERE but in the workplace he is as bad as it gets.
>If you called someone “fricking moronic”
that's basically what he does though, minus the sarcasm and innuendo. I'm pretty sure all doctors do this tho, even if they wait for you to leave the exam room
you have poor self esteem. to quote House:
>doctors can be degenerates. this is America
I envied house wuen it was aired.
Smart, kaybe nit chad but not ugly. High iq, good job, comfy house and bike.
Friends that actually give a frick about you.
Everything I never had
>Friends that actually give a frick about you.
Until you get to the post rehab part of the show when everyone is suddenly a bad friend to him because the writers wanted to make him a drug addict again
Wilson was his friend no matter what.
I had feeling thst his team was giving a frick about him despite being an butthole
>Wilson was his friend no matter what.
Sure, I'll agree Wilson was his friend, but that's still one friend and no family. You say his team "gave a frick" about him, but I don't think they were friends. House was like a teacher, and they were his students; That's like a professional relationship, and not one of mutual respect, which is real friendship.
When I imagine having friends, it's always a group. Why have one friend when you can have three? The logic behind that for me is
>female friend (aka girlfriend)
>male friend
and then I was like, why doesn't the guy friend have a girl? So now the group is four.
You didn't answer my question, so don't even bother replying. I find it hard to believe you're a doctor, because I'm not a doctor and I don't like anyone here, so you should like them even less.
I'm finnish. But why are you here if you don't like people here? I already explained to you that this place used to be the spear head of global culture and it's just an old bad habit for me to come here. Yeah people here are more chuddish, demented and negative than in the old good times.
>why are you here if you don't like people here?
I'm glad you asked. I was here on Cinemaphile when everyone was like me, and that's why I'm still here. They're gone, but I'm not, because they had things in the real world, and I don't.
I'm kind of glad they're gone, because Cinemaphile used to be majority white, and if everyone is gone, it means the white people left. They shouldn't have to be aroud non-whites even on the internet.
When I was a teenager, I went to public school. Did I choose to go to public school? No, I had to go, because my family couldn't afford a good school. Cinemaphile is just public schoool, so don't ask me why I'm here. I'll be here until you're all gone, because I'm not like any of you, and this is the only place I have.
>Friends that actually give a frick about you.
Did he have those? He had co-workers, but he always seemed to be alone outside of work. I didn't envy him, and he seemed like a really sad person. I'm equally sad, so that's how I know it's not the kind of life you want to have. I don't think House even had a family.
Anyway, you'll be okay. You just need to suffer this shit life, and the next life will be better.
My dad always called me house and compared me to him, and it wasn’t until high school when the biggest loser in our grade dressed as house for Halloween that I realized it was a massive insult.
We don’t talk anymore.
If he is such a great doctor why can't he fix his leg?
every episode, its PAIN
I like the few episodes they have where they show that his massive butthole behaviour is maybe a 5/10 on the dial, and he can ramp it up to an 11 to really hurt people when he lashes out.
i could easily pretend to be a doctor for a day and no one would even be able to tell
I could, people like you reek and aren't hard to spot.
he's an addict with a leg problem
Why didn't he just get the leg amputated if that was the best option?
looking back at this series it was so cringe,t he safe edgy jokes and the shitty characters. it was so bad, peak american (israeli) "humor"
Wasn't there a hole subplot about how his leg pain was mostly in his head? I remember Cuddy giving him saline injections in his spine instead of morphine and him feeling instantly better. There's also that episode where he starts jogging and is completely fine for some reason.
