Ooooo, fun! :D

From most to least applicable to myself:

Wrath
Doesn't matter what mood I'm in - even if I'm so disgustingly happy I'd be able to vomit sunshine and rainbows, I always feel the rage simmering beneath my calm exterior. Of course it's reined in when I'm out and about, but every so often it threatens to blow off the lid and boil over, manifesting in rather callous and hateful utterances that make people wonder what exactly happened to the guy they'd just been talking to. I also yell and cuss a lot, though mostly at inanimate objects and in the privacy of my home or my car; usually it's because someone or something is wasting my time or being a dick in my general direction.

Gluttony
Doesn't matter that I've finally slimmed down enough to look like a normal person... I have a problem with overeating, and since I've indulged that tendency for all my life I'm not sure it will ever go away. Delicious meals, sweets, fizzy drinks and alcohol - I love them all, and on the occasions that I do fall prey to the urge I can easily consume more than my GDA of calories in a single sitting.

Pride
I can be a downright snobbish prick at times. I've always been a judgemental person, even though I politely keep my opinion to myself, but the overwhelming majority of people I encounter in daily life are so absorbed in trivial bullshit and share interests and opinions so breathtakingly retarded I can't help but look down on them with varying degrees of disgust. Also, the few big things I've managed to achieve in my life really do make me proud, and sometimes I unfairly apply my standards on these matters to other people.

Lust
No way around it, delightfully naughty things rattle around my brainspace every single day. When I'm in a relationship these urges are channelled into a more normal and healthy direction, but even so my mind invariably keeps drifting to explicit distractions of a broad and curious nature... and I'm pretty sure some of the things I've accessed during my time on the internet have stained my soul and might outright damage some folks if they were ever exposed.

Sloth
I can be a lazy bastard sometimes, and I see nothing wrong with taking a day of the weekend to lie on my couch and just watch cartoons for hours on end or read a good book. However, most of the time I feel the need to do something productive (though it's not always been this way); it doesn't necessarily have to involve physical exertion, but I do like having something to show for it when I'm done.

Greed
Sure, sometimes I'd like to have more cash to spend on things I don't really need, but that probably applies to over 99% of people currently inhabiting this mudball. All in all I'm content with what I have and don't feel the need to strive for substantially more.

Envy
As stated under Greed, I'm not overly interested in hoarding more than I already have, and since I'm notoriously egocentric it should come as no surprise I give absolutely zero fucks about what other people have, be it material goods, attributes or skills. Besides, I made it pretty clear in the Pride section that, on average, I probably wouldn't feel merciful enough to piss on my fellow man to put out the flames, should they spontaneously combust for some reason, which kind of implies they lack things for me to envy.

Great thread, OP! What an entertaining way to start my morning. :D

"Ah Hell... I'm a fan of all seven."

But more specifically, I'd say that pride, gluttony and lust are the biggest ones.
"... But right now I'm going to have to go with Wrath."

Ah, good old Cap'n Mal Reynolds.

But yes, I'd have to say that Wrath is my strongest, followed by Sloth and Lust.

Gluttony, Pride, and Envy are mid-level, while Greed is my weakest. But Wrath is the one I lead with the most, sometimes in conjunction with Sloth.

Envy - My biggest one it always bothers me to see people have something I desire, whether its a girlfriend, nice job, or self confidence.

Sloth - My 2nd biggest sin, I'm a huge procrastinator and cant be assed to do anything besides sit infront of my computer screen or sleep most of the time. I have zero motivation and drive to go out there and have fun or achieve what I could achieve in life.

Lust - My loneliness and massive porn collection speak for themselves. More than likely all my other problems would go away if I got laid a bit more.

Wrath - Because of said problems I seem to lash out to my friends and family, and when I'm really low I go into one of those "I want to kill everybody" mindsets.

Greed - Kind of a weak sin since I dont put a value on money past the required amount needed I really dont want more than my fill but I seem to always get less than my share.

Gluttony - Another one not too high on my list, I really only eat because I need to in order to survive not because I enjoy the process.

Pride - I used to be extremely pretentious in my younger days but time has withered what self confidence I had away so I dont really have an ego, not even about things I actually should or could be proud of.

Strongest: Sloth, although Gluttony is a pretty close contender. Oddly, while Sloth is strongest, it's the one I hate in myself the strongest.

Weakest: Envy. I don't mind the success of others much, unless they go out of their way to shove it in my face. But that's just a reaction to unpleasent people.

Sloth, I am the laziest, most un-motivated 21 year old I have ever seen in my life. It's gotten to a very big problem to because it's affecting my life in more ways than one, and yet it is really hard to get myself moving and take action. Really hard.

1. Envy: I ENvy people who have time and then more time. and then psosbily memory, and smarts, and everything else.

2. Wrath: Got rid of that one pretty much.

3. Lust: Because I'm a 1723-year-old boy with his virginity intact, and a shitload of fetishes and unfulfilled fantasies.
*fixed

4. Sloth: in real life - maxumum slothiness. in games - im a 100% crowd.

5. Gluttony: Well, just look at me, or rather, dont. im fat, i dont care.

6. Greed: i must hoard everything. i got over 600 dvds, and a list of thingst o do when i have time that would take multiple lifetimes to finish.

7. Pride: My opinion is always right even when im wrong. I may not be the best human that ever lived but if everyone would be half as good as me the world would be way better off.

So, anyone up for a competition?

Probably sloth and gluttony...
Well, sloth is mostly because there are way too many distracting things to do which are much easier than the things I'd like to do or should do.
For example, right now I should be working on a project for school. (Didn't go to class just to work on that.) But I'm being distracted by the escapist and youtube.

Gluttony... Well, I eat when I'm bored sometimes. Or just because I like the feeling of nomming on something... like that feeling of biting through chocolate... And the taste. I like the taste of good food. Oh... Please excuse me while I go have a few dates. Then I'll really get to my work for college.

For me, it's all of them:

1. Wrath: I have suffered anger problems throughout middle school.
2. Lust: Well, I'll leave it at that.
3. Gluttony: I'm fat, enough said.
4. Sloth: Due to not having a job, I'm somewhat of a slob who doesn't want to do housework.
5. Envy: I am jealous of all who are just given what they truly want.
6. Pride: I am extremely vainful of myself.
7. Greed: I always want more, no matter what.

THinkin' Wrath and Pride. I tend to be a narcissistic person with a short fuse. Wrath and Pride sum it up pretty nicely.

Watched the movie recentely and was a bit distrubed... because it reminded me I'd watched it as a kid. My mom called me while I was watching and I told her I'd seen some of it before... she said yes, apparently when my sister and I were about 12 and my parents were out for the evening, we went up to Blockbuster and rented it. They came home to find us pretty upset.

I didn't remember any of that, but I think it's pretty damn funny.

As for myself? Top three would be:
1. Sloth
2. Gluttony
3. Pride

Then probably Envy, Greed, Wrath and Lust.

I like money and food a lot.
I do earn my money honestly though, and though my diet is far from great, I try to do a sizeable amount of exercise to balance it out and all.

Let's see...

Gluttony - I forget to eat, seriously.

Sloth - While I do like to sleep in, I go crazy unless I'm doing something with my time, be it work, gaming or trying to be creative.

Lust - I have my on and off moments, really. A bit of an even balance there. (Prize question: How many people picked this one because they don't want others people to doubt their sex-appeal?)

Envy - Not as much as I used to, wasting time and effort over stuff I don't have makes it hard to enjoy stuff I do have.

Wrath - This one is tricky. I am usually calm and composed, but someone who knows how to push my buttons and has the tendency to abuse that knowledge might have to deal with a very cranky me.

Pride - Why, not to toot my horn, but *TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT* Ahem, sorry about that. Yeah I can be a bit narcissistic at times.

Greed - Well, let me put it this way. In order for me to betray my principles, you'd have to offer me more money than you can come up with. Not because I'm greedy, but becaused I'm principled; I'm not an easy sell-out.

Sloth. Pride. Wrath.

So I deserve to get tied to a bed and get my face disfigured by Brad Pitt.

Pride, sort of, in the sense that if there is something that I know/believe that I am good at then I am obscenely arrogant about it. On the other hand, I don't have much confidence in general, so I dont know if that counts.

Envy is my greatest of the 7 "deadly" sins.

Why: I see everyone I know with loving family, partners, or other friends. I want that for myself and I know it has fucked me up in the past. I want to be loved and I envy those who have it.
