Oh, Teppy! Neither can I. I spent the first week after I watched House pretty sure I had trichinosis (sp?) every time my leg so much as itched.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Vaguely-defined Buffista-us. Them as grok both the elbows-to-the-head and the makeup. I realize that may actually be a small subcommunity, now that I think of it, but it was a damned good movie.

What about them upsets you, Steph? Life endangerment or bad medicine?
I can't stand watching people suffering, whether the patient or the patient's family. Plus, I convince myself that I have whatever horrible ailment the patient had that week. (See below.)

Bingo! I was all "*I* might have trichinosis! How would I know? The character didn't know! I might have worms in my BRAIN! How would I know? I eat ham! Oh my god, I EAT HAM!!!!! Nooooooooo!!!!"
So it's better for my sanity and blood pressure if I don't watch.

Steph, It was [spoiler removed]
Ouch. But that's pretty much the quintessential "Hallelujah," isn't it? I figured that would be it.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
I eat ham? Oh my god, I EAT HAM!!!!!

I'm actually partial to the John Cale version. I do love the song, but every show and their dog has used it in the last 5 years.

I can't handle medical dramas. They upset me far beyond any enjoyment I might get out of snarky Hugh Laurie. So, while I understand it's v. v. good, I can't watch House.
Tep is me.

Sue, now that you mention it, maybe I'm confusing the versions. Which one is the one that gets used the most? Cale or Buckley? I've heard them both, but now I can't call either one to mind. I'm a freak, b/c my favorite version is by Ari Hest.
