I like that you mentioned that Wilson is far more self-centered than House. I think that, over the past 5 seasons, House has shown himself to be more selfish than Wilson. Wilson, on the other hand, is more self-absorbed and self-centered. He will do unselfish things, but he is very centered on himself. Did that make sense?
It makes perfect sense, yes. I agree to a certain point. I think that House CAN be very selfish, but it depends on who we are talking about him dealing with. I think when it comes to his patients House is very un-selfish because he will become so focused on the case that he will neglect his own comfort and health. I don't know if I think that he's selfish when it comes to Wilson. I'd have to give that more thought before I'd comment.
And, finally, I'll leave you with an analogy before I go. I have a dog. My dog has an orange hot-dog toy, with a squeaker on each end. A good H/W discussion is like when my dog bites one end of the hot dog and squeaks, and then I grab the other end and squeak back. A bad H/W discussion is like the times when I squeak my end, and instead of squeaking his own end back, my dog lunges for my end and bites my hand. And that is my *brilliant* analysis ;)
Hee! That's a very good analysis!
And by the way, YOU ARE SIXTEEN???? OMG! I have got to tell you that I would NEVER have guessed. You are so well-spoken, reasonable, easy going, and mature that I seriously thought you were much older. I'm impressed.
Sorry I took so long to write back. My daughter commandeered the computer earlier this evening and I'm just getting around to checking email and LJ.
