The Oxford comma is the Kanye West of punctuation.
But don’t think that means it’s not necessary.
It protects against spurious boasting.
It makes parties go way, way better.
And it’s the protector of reputations.
Omit it at your peril.

We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane or off topic. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
