Pick one:

1.  I am boosting my own oddness quotient.

2.  I think of "oddity" as a count noun, and it didn't seem to fit.

3.  I am neerly illliterut.

4.  "Oddness" came to mind ahead of "oddity", and I'm a speed-typer when
it comes to subject lines.

Really, I dunno.  Until your post, it didn't even register that oddity
might be preferable to oddness.
