Heartbreaking: The Worst Person You Know
Just Made A Great Pointuses the comma the way you think it should be usedMy actual reaction. I’m still gonna use it, but blegh.
I mean at the end of the day, Who Gives a Fuck About an Oxford Comma?
me, myself, and I
thank God you didn’t confuse us by thinking you were referring to yourself twice at the same time separately instead of twice, twice.
Me.
Honestly same. Let’s hope he thinks the Oxford Comma is a neat martini dusted in Vicodin.
I do find issue with your capitalization, with Trump I find fault with his capitalization. Slight difference
I’ve seen those English dramas too
Vampire Weekend does! This is some deep nostalgia for me that you’ve just dug up.
Just because the man is capable of one good decision in his life, doesn’t mean he should run the country. Just sayin’.
“A broken clock…”
Can we convince people to use the Oxford comma, if we spread that it’s anti-woke?
… you mean, convince people not to use it?
I think the implication is that people who are anti-woke are stupid so those are the ones you have to convince to use the Oxford comma since intelligent people already see the benefit.
Intelligent people avoid being redundant, though. The and/or is a substitute for the Oxford comma.
Tell that to the two strippers, JFK and Stalin.
I see you fell for the humorous disinformation, like many others.
Mate no one’s gonna believe you didn’t mean what you said. Next time just own up to it and move on.
Of course I meant it. The OC is redundant. People who use the JFK/Stalin anecdote are demonstrating a reliance upon memorization rather than logic as a basis of syntax.
Nah, it can be fun to be needlessly redundant.
And, have, people, write, like, this,? No thanks
No, thanks
FTFY
*No, thanks.
Bet you learned English in the American south
I did,
The strippers, JFK, and Stalin agree with Trump on this one.
EXPLAIN “COVFEFE” ALREADY!
Draft: new tweet: “Coffee county…”
(Staffer sees what he’s writing and a struggle for the phone ensues)
Great thanks I hate it. No more commas for me ever just to be sure.
Kate Christobek is not a fan of the Oxford comma
I believe Kate adores it but felt disgusted by using it this time
There had to be something we’d have in common. Now that I know he’s an Oxford comma man, he’s got my vote!
I’m sure Hitler enjoyed breathing air too but that doesn’t mean it’s wrong or that I’m going to stop
Trump is a dumb slob who can’t read or write on his own.
I use it the Oxford comma the truly correct way.
Situationally.
I use it geographically.
You know what they say. When in Oxford…
Can you describe a situation where an Oxford comma would be detrimental to a sentence?
When it changes the meaning.
I went to dinner with two idiots, Donald Trump and Joe Biden.
Vs
I went to dinner with two idiots, Donald Trump, and Joe Biden.
If you intend for the reader to think you went to dinner with two people, treating the Oxford comma as mandatory is going to add ambiguity at best and change the meaning at worst.
Mostly in script. Specifically with adjectives.
“I found myself surrounded by giant trees, massive ferns and strange mushrooms.”
If this line were to be spoken aloud, the last two subjects would not have a pause between them. It’s a picky me thing, to be honest. I’m extremely obsessive about grammar.
It sounds wrong without the comma
Just because he does, doesn’t mean you can’t, Kate.
Never thought I’d agree with Trump on something.
Hes an ox, yes, but not nearly as useful
What is Trump’s stance on gif/jif?
