Hey there, Odd Ones!

You know how Oddly Chill has this vibe of chaotic fun, right? Well, that chaos didn't just magically appear - it was earned. Seriously. The journey to finding my rhythm with this show, this blog, and everything in between? It's been a mess. But, like, the good kind of mess. You know what I mean? The kind where you’re somehow productive but also constantly tripping over your own ideas. If you’ve been following me long enough, you’ve probably noticed my ADHD is a major player in all of this. That and my knack for diving headfirst into ideas without looking.

Take my writing, for instance. When I first started, I had no clue how to craft a voice that was authentically mine. I mean, I knew I wanted to be funny and weird, but I didn’t really know how to channel that into something that would make sense for you guys. Spoiler alert: it took a lot of trial, error, and absurdly bad drafts. But the key was figuring out how to be myself - chaotic, impulsive, and full of random tangents - while making it entertaining enough for you to want to come back and read more.

Honestly, writing has been a beast to tame. There are days when it feels like my brain is throwing a party and forgot to send out the invitations. And then there are days when I finally manage to wrangle my thoughts into something that makes sense, and that’s when the magic happens. But here’s the thing: all that craziness, all those unfinished thoughts, and random bursts of creativity? It’s all part of the fun. And I think you, Odd Ones, get that. You’ve stuck around for the weirdness. You’ve embraced the randomness.

Which brings me to today’s absurdity… Would You Rather questions. You’ve seen these on Oddly Chill plenty of times. If you haven’t, well, I’m sure you’ve at least played them with friends, right? You know, the kind that makes everyone freeze in place and try to figure out the impossible? Well, get ready, because I’m about to break out my top 5 “Would You Rather” questions that have absolutely broken my friends. And honestly, if they didn’t question their entire existence by the end, I wasn’t doing it right.

  1. Would you rather have to wear a full clown costume every day for the rest of your life, but it gives you superpowers, or be able to shapeshift into anyone but only for 10 minutes at a time? You could be anyone, but the clock is always ticking.

  2. Would you rather live in a world where every single thing you say is heard by everyone but you can’t speak to anyone ever again, or live in complete silence, never able to communicate with anyone, but you can always hear their thoughts? You can either be heard all the time or be a mind-reader in isolation.

  3. Would you rather experience your life in reverse, starting with the end and working your way to the beginning, or relive the same day over and over again for the next 100 years? Either way, it’s a loop, but one is all about knowledge, and the other? Well, it’s a mental grind.

  4. Would you rather have unlimited access to knowledge, but only about random, useless facts like how many blades of grass are in Central Park, or be able to learn one skill of your choosing, but once you’ve mastered it, you forget everything else you’ve ever known? You could be a piano genius, but what else would you remember?

  5. Would you rather be able to pause time but never be able to restart it, or be able to fast-forward through moments of your life, but never be able to rewind? You get the ultimate power, but there's always a catch.

I mean, who doesn’t love watching people squirm over these, right? It’s a simple reminder that life doesn’t always have to make sense or follow the rules. Sometimes, we just need to throw some weird questions out there and see what happens. And if it gets us all laughing in the process? Even better.

Anyway, I just want to take a second to thank all of you for being a part of this weird little corner of the internet. I know I’ve said it before, but I seriously appreciate your support. Whether you’re here for the laughs, the chaos, or just because you’re curious about what I’m going to say next, you make it all worth it.

And hey, if you like what you’re reading, there’s always room for more absurdity in your life. Just $5 a month gets you access to this weirdness every week. And if you’re feeling extra generous, tips are always appreciated - it helps me keep the chaos going.

Catch you next time, Odd Ones. Stay wonderfully weird.

Zach


P.S. If you want more absurdity in your life, $5 is your ticket to weekly hilarity! Tips? Always appreciated - it keeps the chaos alive. Thank you!
