Especially since the whole project started out of boredom and loneliness and low self-worth and lack of writing projects and other sad things. The project has enriched my life to the point I’m thinking about starting a religion based on it. I’ve seen thousands of oddities in the 11 years that I’ve been doing OTIS. OTIS is an ongoing chronicle of my visits to weird sites and artifacts. Can you tell us a bit about that? How did it come about? You run a very popular blog, ODD THINGS I’VE SEEN (OTIS).

It’s right beside the massive pile of great real-life human characters. Add them to the massive pile of great fictional human characters.
