Honestly, one of the worst things House did to the modern zeitgeist was to convince techbros that shoving ket up your nose 24/7 will make you smarter.
Wasn’t it vicodin abuse? All I remember them saying about ketamine was House saying it was a lame drug for being heroin without the high.
Wasn’t it vicodin abuse?
Yes, for the leg pain initially. Although, I thought for sure either he or one of his staff experimented with other drugs, including stimulants, for various reasons.
I might just be confusing him with Sherlock Holmes, who was notorious for cocaine addiction.
Well for one episode he did try some risky drug that eliminated his pain completely, but he ended up stopping the use because it was extremely dangerous.

lmao very fitting because she was referred to as “13” for most of the show, i think her real name was Remy? she had Huntingtons

At some point he starts injecting ketamine for his leg
It didn’t make him smarter.
If I recall correctly, he was afraid it was making him dumber.
yeah but only because his leg didn’t hurt at all, so he wasn’t miserable. Non-miserable House didn’t make others miserable as much, which in his mind was bad because him being an ass made others better doctors. and since nothing mattered more than saving the puzzle, he didn’t want less than the best from his team
so House in fact thought being nice made him dumber
I think at the end of s2 or start of s3 (or s1 and s2) he had a spinal injection of Ketamine that removed his pain, but it eventually came back.

It was vicodin

It didn’t make him smarter, it allowed him to think about something else besides the pain.

As far as I know, that’s 99% the reason why people use drugs.
Then there are those of us who are mostly taking drugs to calm down our immune system when god’s green creatures are mating.
I take clown tranquilizers!
Sounds more fun than my dumb antihistamines.

Last time I did ket I found myself lying on the front lawn of an LA suburban family home, in the rain, watching Mel Gibson choke out Gary Busey, but I definitely was not anymore intelligent from that encounter.
Man everyone’s having fun on drugs, meanwhile I just sit there unable to figure out whether I have my glasses on
Thanks for the belly laugh
Aw this is honestly making my day rn
If it makes it any better I was 100% being serious
wait did that character really kill someone?
He killed a tyrant dictator who was hospitalized at their hospital, because the guy was leading a genocide against the native population of his country. Falsified his test results and administered “treatment” that ended up killing him IIRC.
In Japan, heart surgeon. Number one. Steady hand. One day, yakuza boss need new heart. I do operation. But, mistake! Yakuza boss die. Yakuza very mad. I hide in fishing boat, come to America. No English, no food, no money. Darryl give me job. Now I have house, American car, and new woman. Darryl save life. My big secret: I kill yakuza boss on purpose. I good surgeon. The best!
I loved that guy! You get a katana named scalpel as a reward, too!
I mean, it’s an Office reference first and foremost.
The OG is https://theoffice.fandom.com/wiki/Hidetoshi_Hasagawa, but the reference in Cyberpunk 2077 you’re talking about really cracked me up
based and chadpilled
Wow, this show really went places. I’ve only ever seen like the first half of season one.
So you missed the whole “House Houses in Prison” arc?
This is in, I think, season 4.
I’ll give him a pass.
I think the patient was like a tyrant dude played by James Earl Jones: https://house.fandom.com/wiki/President_Dibala.
Not really, it was acting. He killed an African warlord.
This clears up nothing up haha. He was just acting. So pretended to kill someone? Or he actually killed an African warlord… Which somehow doesn’t count, and acting is a non sequitar
I’m more puzzled by the “twink” guy.
I’m not sure, but I think that in the 90s, those goddamn Nazis couldn’t express their despicable views publicly without being met with widespread contempt. So it seems to me that the 90s were much more “woke,” whatever that means.
I agree, but there’s a trend with some Millennials (and younger) boomerifying themselves and saying you could be a bigot or even a literal nazi with few or no consequences “back in the day”
My speculation: as long as there were significant numbers of WW2 vets around, an outright Nazi movement could never gain traction in the US. Not that the Greatest Generations was made up of paragons of social justice, but there were limits to what they were willing to tolerate in open society. That generation (and probably home front Silents, as well) was inoculated against going full Nazi in ways that Boomers weren’t.
The few that remain now aren’t numerous enough to hold much sway.
Woman
I mean at least they made her conventionally smoking hot and have other characters recognize that
Wo-man. Whoooah, man.
litarelly the worst
imagine if they made house’s boss a woman
that too a hot one
I bet those woke libs would put 2 or more women in the main cast if they made the show today.
But maybe they’d all be gorgeous.
One of them might even be clutches pearls bisexual… and interested in black men
And they’d be named Cameron, Thirteen and Cutthroat Bitch.

I’m sorry, but Wilson a Twink?
Maybe 20 years earlier, he was.
he was in dead poet’s society
Legit a babe in the pilot… like a baby I mean
And now do 2025… We are regressing fast.
Weird how some people are so obsessed with telling other people how to make their art. Can you not even watch a show without feeling like your white hetronormative maleness is being challenged?
Idk, I think it’s lupus.
Underrated comment. However, it’s never lupus.
Episodes 7 and 15 would’ve taken place on the holodeck.
More mouse bites
I don’t remember any of this. Since when was foreman black?
Lots of people have black hair. How is that wake?
I salute you. Nice job on not seeing color.
That was delightful
Ashly Burch is so talented!
This vexes me
Who the fuck is G*d? Do you mean God?
Agreed I’m not even reading further than that shit.
Nah, Gg0d. Double gee oh dee byatch!
Dunno if it applies here but it’s a thing some Jewish people do
Officially it’s Ganusd, but there are different stages:
G*d God G0d GOd
I prefer god.
Go woke, no broke
Is calling mid-2000s stuff “90s” the new meta?
2005 was essentially the 90s. People were still talking about the matrix, playing n64 and ps1, barely anyone had a mobile phone and most internet connections were still dial up.
BS the 90s ended after 9/11 and 2005 is when people started using social media and YouTube…the beginning of the end.
That was 2006. Youtube came out december 15th 2005. Facebook became available to general public in september 2006.
Look, hsres a graph
2005 was roughly the end of the internet dark ages, but it was barely different to the 90s.
the end of the Internet dark ages
That seems like a strangely backwards way to word it in my mind. Thats around the time the Internet stopped being “the internet” to me.
I see what you mean. Yeah, the internet was a better place back then.
I was coming from more of a stance of the tech behind the internet.
When someone could ruin my game of ultima online by picking up the phone.
When niche message boards existed and msn messenger was how i spoke to my friends.
Since when are we counting youtube as social media
Dunno, i didn’t make the graph.
Bleh that was just in the US
Idk about the PS1 as I def had the PS2 by then, but the rest checks out, that was def my life
Did people who grew up in the 90s not see shows made for adults in the mid 2000s?
They don’t remember or give a fuck.
Okay, okay. I should’ve put 90s/2000s
No, your title makes more sense. People who grew up in the 90s would have watched House in its original run. The thing that makes no sense is the censoring of the word god.
I’m not religious, but some religious people don’t like to say god’s name in vain and I was mimicking that.
Maybe it was too much
Just gotta relax a little so the ‘*’ becomes an ‘o’ again.
Bojack Horseman actually came out in the 90s. That’s why in the theme song it talks about running in th 90s. For more movie facts subscribe to my webzone.
Idk but we need to tell more people that the early 2000s was hugely influenced by the I Love the 80s VH1 TV series which caused a resurgance of swing and is where we see some of the stuff like Mambo #5 and Christina Aguilera’s Candyman, please teach your children the lore
