IT'S ODD, ALL RIGHT!

 

Only humans can find a solution as to why this paragraph is unusual and odd. I do not think automatic computation will aid you in solving it. . . and that's good. . . for automation is all right, but humans can think! So it is up to you to find a solution as to why it is unusual and odd. Go to work on it right now. Only by looking and looking can you unlock its final solution. I admit that its grammatical construction is awkward, but that is not what you should look for. Only by looking will a solution pop up for you. I wish I could pass you a solid hint, but I can't, and I'm truly sorry about that. But don't push the panic button-- it will hit you, if not today, tomorrow. Do you know by now? No? It's tough, so why not put it away for now and try it again tomorrow. Good luck to you in finding out why this paragraph is so unusual.
