We all get rejected sometimes in life; whether a college, person, or animal rejects us, it doesn't matter because it still hurts. Well, there are some Odyssey article ideas that were rejected, too, or would've been rejected, so I have decided to list my favorite Odyssey article rejects from the Twitter account @OdysseyRejects.
Besides, let's be honest- sometimes the reject stories make for the best ones. And who knows? Maybe next week I'll actually write an article about one of these rejects just to see what happens. If you have a preference about which one I should write about, be sure to let me know.
