Young mother: We are not vaccinating....I think some multinational pharmaceutical company wants me to think they work. Pad their bottom line.
House:You know another really good business? Teeny tiny baby coffins. You can get them in frog green or fire engine red. Really. The antibodies in yummy mummy only protect the kid for 6 months, which is why these companies think they can gouge you. They think that you'll spend whatever they ask to keep your kid alive. Want to change things? Prove them wrong. A few hundred parents like you decide they'd rather let their kid die then cough up 40 bucks for a vaccination, believe me, prices will drop REALLY fast.

A place to keep your stuff while you go out and get...more stuff. They vary in size depending on how much stuff you have.

A word used to describe self-hating African Americans who sell out their race in order to achieve higher status or to get approval from Caucasians. The word is often used inappropriately by black Americans to other blacks who behave intelligently, or do not behave like stereotypical negroes. A typical house negro gets rich, and then finds a token white wife to put on his arm, and does not associate with blacks. The antonym of house is field.
