JD's Description of Himself
My emotional journey began at five years old when I walked in on my parents having sex in a position my father would later playfully describe as "the jackhammer." I have a mentor that verbally abuses me every chance he gets, and no matter how much I try, I can't stop constantly narrating my own life. Molly, I'm narcissistic, I'm pessimistic, I'm obsessive, I'm insecure. And I am so afraid of intimacy that every one of my relationships is a journey of self-sabotage that inevitably ends in a black vacuum of shattered expectations and despair.
From Season Four, Episode 8, My Last Chance.

JD's Hall of Fame Hissy Fit
No, no. I totally understand. Come on, you did what you had to do. You went with your gut; Elliot's a great doctor. I do have three questions, though: Why do you hate me when I show you nothing but love? Who's gonna tell my mom? And what the hell am I supposed to do with ten thousand "John Dorian, Chief Resident" business cards!?!?!
From Season Four, Episode Two, My Office.

JD acting like Dr. Cox
Hhhheeeere's the deal, Eleanor: We're gonna go ahead and get a full work-up on this guy. So, while I drop an NG tube and do a gastric lavage, why don't you go ahead and get an order on EKG with cardio biomarkers. If you need to know where those are, they're on page 37 of the Ann Taylor catalog -- right next to that salmon cable-knit sweater you've wanted for so long but haven't had the courage to order...'cause you're worried the weave's so thin, your nipples might just go ahead and peek their little pink selves through. Isn't that right, Dr. Cox.?
From Season Three, Episode Sixteen, My Butterfly

Thanks for the new thread Val.

[CoxianExpress]

Ha ha ha, I like the thread title.

I hope I'm allowed to suggest/request this, but I love that picture of Zach against his bike. (The one he recently posted on his facebook) Can that be added to the main page of this thread? (And I just noticed I'm not on the list. Can I be added please? Thanks. )

Thanks, val; on both accounts.

[Ellipsis]

Our Guru huh?

I saw the picture on the last thread.. Oh Zach..

[tushtush]

Tfnt.

Just been wondering: Do you think that if JD had married Julie they'd be happy?

I think they would, which makes me rather sad.

[Ellipsis]

The Jello shipper in me does not want to believe that they could.

But honestly...I think it's possible.

Nah, I don't think so. Don't get me wrong - I thought those two had a great dynamic, but I think it was more of a "happy-go-lucky" kind of relationship. It's hard imagining them together - married and raising kids - with the way they often behaved. I think JD needs someone he can actually talk to; to be able to hold real conversations while still being compatible with his goofier side.

[Ellipsis]

Enter Elliot

[CoxianExpress]

Bingo.

[remlap]

They would be broke just by replacing everything Julie breaks

CoxianExpress brought up a good point about his goofier side, Elliot was never really willing to put up with it till Season Eight.

[valeposh]

True.

[Ellipsis]

That's funny. And could be possible.

I always really liked Julie though, so if I had to choose anyone for JD to end up with aside from Elliot it would be her.

Didn't approve of Mandy Moore's slight back lash after they broke up though, not gonna lie. . She didn't say anything straight out, but the songs she wrote that were supposedly about Zach left people to think not-so-awesome things about Zach after and I did not approve of that.

Yeah, I agree with you on the Julie bit, definitely.

Wow, I didn't know about the song thing with Mandy Moore. I mean, I knew they dated, but that's it. Hopefully Zach was strong enough to ignore it. I would hope so, anyway. Don't get me wrong - I understand that not all relationships end well, but the whole bashing thing (unless someone was seriously abusive, which I think we can assume Zach isn't) is rather unnecessary.
