    I haven’t seen all the episodes but I think the underlying point was he is an asshole with actual good intentions underneath. Like he doesn’t care about the BS of being friendly, he just wants to get down to business of helping people.

      It wasn’t about helping people, it was about finding the solution to puzzles and proving that his solution was right. If that just happened to involve helping people, so be it.

        No there are times he has genuinely helped people for no other reason than it was the right thing to do. Wilson puts it best when he says house is an asshole but a noble one

      Most of the time he didn’t even have good intentions though. What motivated him more than anything was being right about everything. His ego always took precedence to anything else.
