rwjx2khsmj Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 No one I know irl would appreciate this so I came here to share with some that would find the humor. Here is a compelling reason to teach the Oxford comma. If you are extremely sensitive you may not want to click. The example is a tiny bit racy.

LaxMom Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 More proof that the loss of the Oxford comma would be, erm, unfortunate. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laura Corin Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 To be more serious than the example requires: as a non-Oxford-comma user, I would not interpret the second example in that way unless a colon were used instead of the comma.
