Yes, I’m aware it’s a slightly strange thread topic, but I’d like to know what you think. No, you don’t necessarily have to partake in this sin, just the one that interests you the most.
Gluttony- Always popular among those the gourmets. Who can’t resist a chocolate fudge cake, apple pie, and several boxes of Oreo’s- all on the same night. Avarice- What? You say crazed, self-centered, megalomaniac like it’s a BAD thing… Sloth- Come on, why get up? Survivor’s on, the armchair’s comfy, and there’s popcorn… Lust- Now I know that a lot of meaningless, casual sex won’t make you a saint- but come on, you don’t really want to resist, do you? Pride- Sure, some call it hubris, but you’re just really sure of yourself. Really REALLY sure. Wrath- Are you the type who goes crazy over little things? Isn’t it fun to rant and rave? For you who love frequenting the pit, this may be your niche… Envy- Envy may be the seed of discordance, but hey…staring at your neighbor’s fine SONY Sound System sure beats trying to turn on your battered no name little walkman, doesn’t it?
Gluttony- I’m a huge pig. I live for buffets. I used to go to Vegas twice a month just to eat buffets.
Avarice- On Monday no, on Friday however, I rock.
Sloth- I’m the biggest wanna-be lazy man I know.
Lust- I’m a guy… it comes with the package.
Pride- Only when I’m really sure that I’m right.
Wrath- What I feel when I’m not right.
Envy- What I feel for the people that showed me I wasn’t right, got the babe I lusted for, can afford to be lazy, have more qualifications for avarice, and get out to the buffets more than I do.
Of course, it’s…pride. In other words, hubris- even if it does sound like a dorky nephew. Seriously, though, its arrogance and knowing you’re right and being cocky and everything all in one. It’s the downfall (and the inspiration for) every great villain.
Sure I could have done like everyone else and gone for lust, but no. I have my…pride. Literally.
I can’t chose a favorite deadly sin. That’s why there are 7 of them–Satan’s Greatest Hits, all lined up on the nice record of Things That God Considers Very Very Bad (*insert big God-like frowny face here)
And hey, there are 7 of them…how can you pick a favorite when they mix and match so well?
