My 7 Deadly Sins

Posted by Ben on | May 26, 2007

  1. Lust (fornication, perversion) - Ticked this one off in 1982 when I was 5. I saw the film clip of Kate Bush’s Babooshka and instandly became familiar with lust. Kate Bush, Tori Amos, Audrey Tautou, Avril Lavigine or the woman from the Brand Power commercials. I am a constand sinner.
  2. Gluttony (waste, overindulgence)Yes at times I have grabbed one too many cookies from the cookie jar. Sue me.
  3. Greed (treachery, covetousness) - I’ll just link this one to Gluttony.
  4. Sloth (laziness, sadness, apathy) - Whatever!
  5. Wrath (anger, hatred, prejudice, discrimination) - In one of my previous posts on Giant Chimney I referred to The Honorable Prime Minister John Howard as a “cunt”. I stand by that statement.
  6. Envy (jealousy, malice) - I was at the urinal the other day and a man two to my left had a bigger penis than I do.
  7. Pride (vanity, narcissism, Hubris) - The sin creators can fuck off with this one. Pride, vanity, narcissism in sober doses are positive things.

It looks like I am pretty good at sinning and am therefore condemned to Hell.

Oh well! At least most of my favourite cyclists will be there and I will be able to listen to Metallica, Jimi Hendrix and Johnny Cash. Which is a lot better than sittin’ in a bunch of clouds with George Bush listening to Joanna Newsom.

How many sins have you committed? How does it make you feel? Do you even care?

I am going to have a think for a few days and come back with my own version of The 7 Deadly Sins.

    You can add bad etiquette at the trough to your sins - i thought you weren’t meant to look sideways!

    I reckon I’ve cracked all 7 just over the weekend.

    I definately did all 7 over the weekend.

    1. Walking around Leichardt shopping center looking at the hot wog chicks.
    2. 3 big macs in a single sitting. Cycling makes you hungry and I was hungover.
    3. The desire that pops up now and then to buy shit I don’t really need.
    4. I watched M*A*S*H pretty much all day sunday.
    5. I thought about my ex.
    6. I thought about people who are debt free.
    7. I strutted naked through my apartment, after playing doctors and nurses ;)
