Oxford Comma

[Phenomix]

My favorite debate of all time; the Oxford Comma. Do you, or do you not, think that the Oxford Comma should/shouldn't be grammatically correct.

Don't know what the Oxford Comma is? The Oxford Comma is the comma that goes before the "and" when listing 3 things. It is both grammatically correct to not use it, and to use it.

Example: "Mary enjoys eating apples, oranges, and pears."


In my opinion, the Oxford Comma should be grammatically required, when forming a proper sentence. However, I do suffer from OCD, so that may be affecting my opinion.

This is just a debate over semantics, but personally I don't include the comma after the second word because I was taught that way.

It doesn't matter if you have a comma in those sentences.

Personally, I, use, Comma, After, Every, word. I, feel, it, makes, me, smarter.
