Ooooo, fun!
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.
