Oxford comma: thoughts?

[Droo]

I am serial offender of the serial comma and rightly so. I think it is appropriate and accurate.

Never underestimate the the impotence of proofreading. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OonDPGwAyfQ)

Hello, I'm Raz. I am a repeat offender of run on sentences and multiple comma usage.

:D

[Tri'ahna Zylary]

Same here :p

I am grading freshman composition essays right now. It hurts so bad...

[Rossos Atrapes]

Lock me up for being a grammar fascist! Well, except in dialogue and first person narration. Heaven knows that no one speaks or thinks in grammatically correct terms.

[Daedalus Quirei]

I've seen those English dramas too, they're cruel.

[Droo]

Do not put statements in the negative form. And don't start sentences with a conjuction. If you reread your work, you will find on rereading that a great deal of repetition can be avoided by rereading and editing. Never use a long word when a diminutive one will do. Unqualified superlatives are the worst of all. De-accession euphemisms. If any word is improper at the end of a sentence, a linking verb is. Avoid trendy locutions that sound flaky. Last, but not least, avoid cliches like the plague.

Oh, Droo. You bring laughter to so many of my days. :love

[Razielle Alastor]

Droo is still my hero. :lol:p
