Who gives a fuck about an Oxford comma?
I've seen those English dramas too, they're cruel

But in all seriousness, I fully support oxford comma use.

    Sorry, but it makes communication clearer! It's already way too easy to accidentally miscommunicate when we're not talking face-to-face. monke-beepboop

    My actual stance that Oxford commas are fine to use when they are needed for clarity, which is almost never

    I get what you're saying, but I do think that it's a good idea to just default to the oxford comma, since it doesn't detract from clarity even in cases when it maybe wasn't necessary, and there are definitely situations where its absence impedes communication. Especially since it can be hard to tell when you're not communicating well sometimes, since you're in your own head and you know what you mean.
