His near-serious and thorough observation of human nature, as well as his constant conflicts with principles and established ethical presuppositions, are not so much because this elite mind is pretending to be metaphysical problems (how it is possible), but rather that his existence itself is very important. It has a metaphysical meaning.
Simply put, the uncle is closer to Socrates than Plato. (God knows what I'm talking about).
Of course, the uncle is Socrates and childish, and the latter magically reversed his fate of being executed into being angry and loved by all. Just imagine, if it wasn't for this guy to make faces, play ball games, and make faces all day long, how many people could forgive him for his meanness. (Definitely there are, after all, there were also Athenians who liked Socrates, God.)
But what I want to say is not that. What I want to say is, without the metaphysical elements, what kind of house is a person's house?
S3's EP12, One Day One Room, is the only episode so far without incurable diseases. I don’t like it too much, but this episode, together with S1’s EP21, Three Stories, and the last episode of S2, successfully revealed the House as a person. Especially in the One Day One Room, the uncle who lost the mystery completely lost his aura, just a crappy doctor who didn't know how to face the patient.
The girl has a very classic saying, but it is not suitable for promotion because of her own special circumstances (black line): I was raped, what's your excuse?
Because of this sentence, I really understand what Wilson once said: Being miserable doesn't make you different, just make you miserable.
At first glance, this sentence is obviously wrong. If the uncle is not lame and melancholic, his charm will be greatly reduced (see S3 EP1). But Wilson is not boring spectators like us, but as 101 friends of the uncle. In front of Wilson, House is an ordinary person first, and then other TITLEs. As far as a person is concerned, House is a failed person, at least an unfortunate person, in a sense, he can even be called a coward.
Like the girl said, what is your excuse?
People always need an excuse to give up alive. As long as you have this excuse, you can proceed with peace of mind.
House's excuse is probably composed of two parts: 1. I'm hurt; 2. I'm right. The former is centered on leg problems, but in fact it also includes various content such as not being recognized, which refers to what the world owes him. Everything; the latter refers to all medical and human diagnosis, that is, everything he believes he needs in the world.
These two excuses complement each other and are closely united, which can eliminate all external disturbances and make House live on an extremely easy one-way street.
Wilson once said that death is easy, and survival requires courage.
Courage of being. Courage of being.
But House chose a simple path, a path full of escape. If you live like House, it's not difficult. In fact, it's much simpler than the average person's way of living.
Fortunately, House himself is not unaware of this problem, and it is not that he has not made any efforts.
At the end of S2, he apologized to the world of ordinary people (represented by the murderer in the dream), and did his best to survive.
People don't change. Sometimes, just know that they are struggling to fight with themselves.
