I would like your opinion of which consumer products
best fit these descriptions

Pride (http://deadlysins.com/sins/pride.html) is excessive belief in one's own abilities, that interferes with the individual's recognition of the grace of God. It has been called the sin from which all others arise. Pride is also known as Vanity.

Envy (http://deadlysins.com/sins/envy.html) is the desire for others' traits, status, abilities, or situation.

Gluttony (http://deadlysins.com/sins/gluttony.html) is an inordinate desire to consume more than that which one requires.

Lust (http://deadlysins.com/sins/lust.html) is an inordinate craving for the pleasures of the body.

Anger (http://deadlysins.com/sins/anger.html) is manifested in the individual who spurns love and opts instead for fury. It is also known as Wrath.

Greed (http://deadlysins.com/sins/greed.html) is the desire for material wealth or gain, ignoring the realm of the spiritual. It is also called Avarice or Covetousness.

This practice reduces almost every single one of my friends into complete twats on a Saturday. Cries of 'Fucking yes!!!11 Pires scored for me, I'm top of my work Fantasy Football league now' This from a Man Utd supporter or whatever.

Of course it may mean that the team he supports, Man U, will fall further beind in the championship race but it's better to do well in some stupid fantasy football game. The twat.
