    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.

              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

      1. It was vicodin

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

      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.
