It's never lupus.

Remember "House?" The show that had many of us were hooked on and obsessed with for eight seasons? How could you forget the cane-wielding, rude, arrogant, and Vicodin-addicted doctor? That's the thing, you can't!

Throughout the series, Dr. House demonstrated his lack of care for rules and social norms. However, he also said many quotable bits that showed his understanding and deep-rooted sense of humanity, and because of that he was both real and relatable to many of us. Here are some of my favorites.

1. "Do you know how many times I wanted to just give up?"

Life is hard, sometimes. We all want to give up at times. That doesn't mean we should or that we can't reach our goals.

2. "I value your opinion. I value rejecting your opinion."

Isn't that how we argue?

3. "'Cause I'm the most screwed up person in the world."

We may feel this way during rough patches, but everyone has their own struggles.

4. "You don't need to depend on people who are gonna let you down."

Preach, Greg!

5. "People's brains stop working when they think they're gonna lose someone they love."

Truth.

6. "I like being alone. At least, I convince myself that I'm better off that way."

Introverts unite! On your own time and in your room by yourself, though.

7. "I cared for eight seconds, then I got distracted."

LOL, same.

8. "I'm fine, I'm just not happy."

Sometimes, this is how we want to respond to a simple "how are you?"

9. "Things change, doesn't mean they get better."

A little pessimistic, but change is change. Hope for the best, but prepare for all possible outcomes.

10. "I'm sorry I pushed you away. It's what I do when I'm afraid."

Feelings can be hard sometimes, even for House.

11. "Oh, God, stop. I'm in a pool of tears here."

Nothing like a touch of sarcasm.

Catch me binge-watching the entire series on Netflix... again, weekdays, at all times.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
