I want to build a hack that closes a switch using an optocoupler every 1-100 times a second. I was wondering what module/circuit/ic that could pulse an adjustable signal using a pot. Could someone direct me in what could do that?

Nothing wrong with a 555. Some of the people who use them exclusively seem like moped-ridin' script-kiddies to me. I should have better discretion then to vent my prejudices here, but I am on my first cuppa. Since I am having a hemorrhage of opinion, let me throw in that shabaz is a more-than-competent electronics designer, and provides practical and appropriate advice. Let me show you an alternative with generic parts:
Yes, you are reading the screed of someone who draws schematics with a crayon.
Where did you get a switch capable of 100Hz? Is it a mercury wetted relay?
