We must have different Gods. My God said "do to others what you would have them do to you". Your God seems to have said "My Way or the Highway".

A patient was hospitalized for what appeared to be mercury poisoning and his excuse was "I've been eating a lot of sushi lately."
The doctor's response? "And you've been getting lukewarm reviews in Speed-The-Plow on Broadway?" When the others looked perplexed, the doc tells them to Google it.

If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it?
These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.

Posted: 9/28/09 at 10:36pmI feel Jeremy Piven has become the Monica Lewinski of theater nerds.

So who among the 'House' writers is the theater buff?
ETA: and the guy looked a little like Piven, but personality-wise he was a total asshole. :)
Sarcasm is an allergic reaction to stupid people.

-Dre- You must remember all the same that at the crux of every game is knowing when it's time to leave the table... And it's important to be artful in your exit. No turning back, you must accept the con is done... It was a ball, it was a blast. And it's a shame it couldn't last. But every chapter has to end, you must agree.

There's a special kind of people known as show people. We live in a world full of dreams. Sometimes we're not too certain what's false and what's real. But we're seldom in doubt about what we feel.

I like the random theatre references in House. Other favourites include House telling Joel Grey to "pay no attention to the man behind the curtain", and Wilson responding favourably to an interviewee with a cry of "that's our Hitler!".
