Houses

1. If you live in the countryside (n). Plural of house. A dwelling, domicile, or place where people live.

2. If you live in a big city (n). Public housing. Places with the term "houses" affixed to them are typically known as projects; the term is applied to them in a feeble attempt to make them to seem more desirable.
Many times, these will be named after famous minorities.

1. Look at those houses over yonder hill.

2.
Taxicab driver: Where are you headed?
Guy: Oh, just over to the Garvey Houses. How much?
Taxican driver: ...you mean the Marcus Garvey Projects? Hell no. Get out.

house!

Derived from its simple beginnings in the Mars University episode of Futurama, house! can be used suffixed to any word or phrase to indicate your displeasure with that word or phrase.
On its own it forms a negative exclamation.

1. ROBOT HOUSE!
2. Contracting AIDS house!
3. "Fergus, why did you eat the fire-alarm?"
"I was making house!"

House

To be blunt and honest to the point of insulting people without necessarily ( but sometimes ) meaning to do so.

To be acting like Hugh Laurie's character Dr House in the medical drama House.

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.

House

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.

If you didn't have so much stuff, you wouldn't need a house. You could just walk around all the time.
