Like, you know, your friend suggests you go for lunch somewhere at this restaurant and you refuse because you don't like the food in that restaurant.

Or because you've got your heart set on that lobster roll that you promised yourself.

And, you know, the way it tastes, the buttery sort of taste of that lobster roll is too much for you to resist.

You're fixating too much on the food.

Or fuss, right?

You know, when I make coffee and, you know, friends have told me it's terrible, actually, my coffee, but still, I fuss over it, right?

I pour the water off the spoon to cool it down to 90 degrees.

I deflect it off the spoon.

I make sure it's only 10% of the coffee to cafeteria ratio.

I fuss too much.

I make sure it's Ethiopian.

I love that stuff.

It's that level of fuss.

Why is it a deadly sin?

Because I'm shutting out other things and I'm actually becoming a bit of a bore.

Gluttony is when you, you know, you're a food bore.

Have you heard about the, no, try this beer, not this beer.

drive 45 minutes across town because you can only get yes and then you shut people out because actually they're secretly really bored with your coffee making this is the best news I've heard all day because that's one of my personal bugbears drives me crazy okay so that's good what else and then finally lust

Which, you know, the least deadly of the seven in the sense that they thought in the Middle Ages it was closest to love.

So it's the most kind of redeemable sin.
