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.
