*Renn opened her starbucks bottled mocha frappuccino thing, ((Which are pretty much the only reason life is worthwhile)) and took a sip before answering.*
"Sounds like a blast. I'll bet you think those ethics is totally pointless, eh?"
*She reached into the bag of chips.*
"You took almost all of them! There are only like four left, you greedy bastard."

"That's my name, don't wear it out," *House mused.*
"The ethics aren't pointless; it's the pointless, ridiculous law suits that come with it. They're like chip and dale you can't have one without the other," *he said bitterly.* "That's why lawyers get paid, not to mention laid so much for 'practicing law'. 'Cause there'll always be doctors and doctors'll always screw up."

"This is exactly why malpractice lawyers get paid ridiculously," *House said pointing to her.* "You try practicing medicine with law suits constantly breathing down your throat. Ethics make doctors careful," *he said as if careful was a bad things. Well, it way in his point of view.* "If you're in diagnositics, you can't afford to be careful."

"There's no point in keeping them alive if they're going to die," *he said simply.* "It's a matter of how they're going to die: in agonizing pain or... with a buttload of morphine. Baby K should've gone through the morphine route the day she was born; but thanks to her church-freak parents, she had to go through 2 1/2 years of meaningless cr*p."

"Yeah, but you can do a lot in 2 years. It doesn't have to be meaningless. Don't you think extra time is a good thing, rather than pointless?"
