GIP!

this is me, checking off a box next to another Deadly Sin.

i've got already Envy (green) and Wrath (red); and this is (obviously) Pride (violet).  this here site tells me that the remaining sins' colors are light blue (Sloth), orange (Gluttony), blue (Lust), and yellow (Greed).  aside from the fact that (a) none of these seems familiar to me in a green-with-envy sort of way (even purple for Pride is kind of a reach, innit?) and (b) i already have an icon where i've photoshopped my left eye blue (i could use the same art with a different caption if i decided to do a Lust one with a blue eye), i've never really been clear on the difference between Greed and Gluttony.  anyone?

it does make sense.

i've also always sort of thought greed and envy were connected -- but i suppose the envious person doesn't necessarily want the thing until his neighbor has it. or something.

Yeah.

I've always sort of linked envy and covetousness -- you want what someone else has, because they have it, not because they have what you want.

well, yeah -- envy and covetousness are the same deadly sin, the way anger is the same as wrath and pride is the same as vanity and greed is the same as avarice -- two names for everything, crazy crazy!
