Which Deadly Sin Are You?

I never quite understood the seven deadly sins construct. There is, especially, very little distinction between Gluttony, Envy, Greed, and Lust: all are concerned with wanting what you're not supposed to want.

I'll go with Pride. I am increasingly an intellectual elitist.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Sloth for me also and it will put me in great trouble sometimes. So i suggest do work at right time other wise it will be our habit to get it done at the ding moment and will make us in helpless situation.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Sloth. I procrastinate like it's going out of style.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I think I've said this before somewhere, but I'm definitely Wrath. I've toned down in recent years, but when I was in the grips of depression, I used anger as my emotion to keep me level (a.k.a. acting "normal"/"happy"). So I had a short fuse.


I'm generally better now.

I was speaking idiomatically.

The Deadly Sins you mentioned are more specific than that.

Lust = Perverse thoughts you should not be having. You know, sex and fetishes and all that.

Gluttony = Food, eating too much, eating badly, stuffing your face too much, wasting food, etc.

Greed = Money, being careless with it, blowing it on stupid things, being frivolous with it, doing horrid things just for the sake of money.

Envy = Wanting what others have. This is really the only one that overlaps the others significantly since Envy can be related to Lust, Greed, or Gluttony. But more specifically, its a sin to continually angst over not having something someone else doesn't have. Even more so if you go out of your way to make other people miserable for what they have and you don't.


The Deadly Sins in general is the idea that you're doing/wanting what you shouldn't. They're just specific examples of such. Ex: the deadly sin of Pride is the idea that gloating and holding ones achievements over another is a sin. Narcissism is an extreme of Pride etc.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I think I've got a bit of every deadly sin inside of me, but the one that came to my mind immediately was Sloth. I can go through these periods of being so fucking lazy. It prevents me from being productive with work, exercise, socialising... it's quite bad. It usually takes a swift metaphorical kick in the arse to get me back on to being myself again.

FELIPE NO

Definitely pride. I hate to lose, and when I do lose I will find any way to rationalize it, excluding of course any faults of my own. Yeah I would probably be charged with this at those almighty pearly gates. Oh well, at least in recent years I have come to actually realize what I'm doing while I'm doing it, thus making it much easier for me to stop and think about my actions.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

(I'm trying to convey how surreal this thread just got without using any words)

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Which one's the one that means I masturbate too much?

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I'd be pride, sometimes I have too much for my own good.

Doesn't matter; OP is dead.

I'm definitely a rageaholic. I have to avoid thinking about certain topics because they will immediately get me mad. I explode a lot. Bless the man who puts up with my shit, seriously.

FELIPE NO

Guys need some help. Should I post here?

Sure, go for it.
