1. Spelling of INSTEAD and ROAD is incorrect otherwise - the direction of OBLIQUE means in a direction that is not straightforward, so, yes, it does make sense.
2. Spelling of FEELINGS and the capitalization of "i" is incorrect otherwise the sentence makes sense.
3. Spelling of SCARCITY is incorrect however rather than using WANTON the word PLETHORA would be more correct.

The first word is okay, but somewhat awkwardly applied.
The second word is used perfectly.
The third is incorrectly used. You could say: We desparately needed help, but all we got was WANTON advice to steal what we needed. He accused me of WANTON cruelty, so I proved him right by hitting him. The way he WANTONLY talked trash about his boss, it seemed like he was trying to get fired.

1. You were lost or on an odd journey
2. Banter rarely heals a wounded soul
3. You are broke and craving Chinese take-out
Hey, as long as they make sense to you, what does it matter?

Number 2 would have made sense had you spelled the words correctly.

The second one does. The third one does not at all. I don't really understand the first sentence.
