Odyssey Rejects

The Odyssey Rejects twitter page surfaced about a year ago. It posts headlines and prompts for articles that wouldn't necessarily make it onto Odyssey. I love to read them and most of them are ridiculous, but there's quite a few that I'd definitely read if they were published. Here is my list of 33 Odyssey Reject articles that I would definitely read:

1. "Why Hasn't He Texted Me Back?" A Long-Form Narrative.

8. How To Tell If You're Being Catfished, as Told By 529 Cats Wearing Scarves.

Who knew so many cats liked to wear scarves? I sure didn't. But if a cat wearing a scarf were to tell me I was being catfished, I'd have to listen.

9. 7 Times You Reacted to a Situation Like A Normal Human Being Would.

Is that even possible? Please, tell me how.

10. An Open Letter To The People Who Keep Down Voting My Yik Yaks.

I'm pretty sure YikYak doesn't exist anymore, or if it does, nobody uses it. But people that used to down vote them are just plain rude.

Chick-Fil-A is delicious, and obviously healthy... you don't even need to work out, duh.

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
