As writers, it can be hard to brainstorm. Some weeks we can write five articles about a variety of topics, and other weeks our creativity temporarily disappears. Unfortunately, this was one of those weeks for me. Fortunately, after staring at a blank screen for a couple of hours, I came across a new Twitter account called “Odyssey Rejects.” It’s basically a page dedicated to ridiculous Odyssey article titles that would probably (note the word probably) never get published. Then I found myself scrolling through the page for 20 minutes hysterically laughing. Here are some of my favorite tweets I stumbled upon.
