Psst. An Oxford comma made a difference in this week’s trial.

When she was in the U.S. Senate, Vice President Kamala Harris had a softball team called the Oxford Kamalas and that is a fantastic team name

Many thanks to the Toronto Star for inadvertently showing us why we should all use the Oxford Comma.

With academic twitter migrating over I wonder if we see a new round on the classic debates, like:
endnotes vs. footnotes
parentheticals vs. em-dashes
oxford commas vs. watching the world burn
Come on folks, lets see some pettiness of small differences, it's what we trained for! Let's set the tone!

Punctuation matters. Way more than you think. Bad punctuation can be devastating.
Don't believe me?
Alright, then gather around, children, because I'm going to tell you a short true story about how not understanding ONE punctuation mark once cost a company millions of dollars in a lawsuit.

It's pretty much an automatic follow if I see you're #teamoxfordcomma
But if I see you use would/should/could "OF" instead of "HAVE," I must immediately begin cataloguing your known weaknesses and forwarding that info to my volcano lair

I wonder if the headline writer got paid by the conjunction.
Sorry but I'm ride or die #teamoxfordcomma and that headline just kills me.
And maybe one other person too.
