Grammar fun

This made me laugh and I believe is worth sharing.

Hope it's big enough to see.

Without the Oxford comma:

  3. Ha ha! I am a big fan of the Oxford comma. We use it in our organizational style guide. But I know many people who hate the Oxford comma. I think the AP style manual doesn't use it. I think you either love it or hate it!

  5. Awesome! I'm a total Grammar freak. Most people would not even understand this. I'm definitely pro Oxford comma.
